A while back @project37 posted a discussion about Mrs 37's cooking blog. It's a wonderful mix of recipes and writing. Here is the link http://tastyoasis.net Type "chocolate cake" into the search bar to pull up the recipe. Don't be afraid that about the amount of coffee in the recipe, it actually intensifies the chocolate flavor!

For icing I am not a fan of plain buttercream. It is the easiest icing to make with only butter and confectioners sugar, and looks beautiful when pipes, but it is too sweet for my tastes. There are icings with a tablespoon or so of flour thrown into some cooked milk which works wonders. For some of those google "flour based icing." But my newest favorite is Swiss Buttercream
