- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan.
- In a bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- In a separate large bowl, beat the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
- Alternately add the dry ingredients and buttermilk to the butter mixture, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
- Fold in the chopped apples gently.
- Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top.
- Bake for about 40-45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
