Instructions:
1. Prepare the Chocolate Cake Layers:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease three 9-inch round cake pans.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, buttermilk, and vegetable oil.
- Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until smooth and well combined.
- Divide the batter evenly among the prepared cake pans and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Remove the cakes from the oven and let them cool completely.
2. Prepare the Cheesecake Filling:
- In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese and sugar until smooth and creamy.
- Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
- Stir in the vanilla extract and sour cream until fully incorporated.
3. Prepare the Salted Caramel Sauce:
- In a saucepan, heat the sugar over medium heat, stirring constantly with a whisk until it melts and turns amber in color.
- Carefully add the heavy cream and butter to the caramel, stirring until smooth.
- Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the sea salt until fully dissolved. Let the caramel sauce cool slightly.
4. Assemble the Cake:
- Place one chocolate cake layer on a serving plate and spread a layer of cheesecake filling on top.
- Drizzle a generous amount of salted caramel sauce over the cheesecake layer.
- Repeat the process with the remaining cake layers, cheesecake filling, and caramel sauce.
- Finish the cake with a final drizzle of caramel sauce on top.
