Would and orange cake with chocolate butter cream frosting taste ok?
Or should I stick with a chocolate cake?
The recipe I plan to use is the ultra orange cake from the Joy of Cooking. The only orange flavors are from oj and orange zest.
and I usually add two tablespoons cocoa powder to one cup of butter cream.
(chocolate butter cream is one of my friends favorite things, so I want to be sure to include it somewhere. And I thought chocolate with chocolate would be too boring, yummy, but boring.)
I think it would taste great, but think you should add a little orange flavoring to the chocolate bc as well. I use orange flavored chocolate (76% cocoa content), melted, added to my chocolate bc. It tastes really great with the hint of orange, so I think if your orange cake isn't too heavy on the orange flavor, it would work well together. 
Orange and chocolate?!? That's heaven to me! Ever had a Terry's Chocolate Orange? Oh so good!
Your recipe sounds really good along with the buttercream.
Add a little Grand Mariner to your frosting. It has a very light orange flavor and any opportunity to use Grand Mariner is a good one!
Trying to watch my cholesterol so I'm fantazing about Grand Mariner ganache.
Hehe, I'm right there with you on the ganache fantasies bubblezmom!
I wish we had the money for Grand Mariner, but the only thing it would get used for is baking, and even then rarely. So I have to settle for non alcoholic flavorings. 
(Although I admit, when I'm at work and have free reign of the bar, I love putting flavored liqueurs in all the baked goods.)

I second that bubblezmom 
Sounds wonderful. My mother always said the love of the chocolate/orange flavor combination was a sign of a sophisticated palate. So there you have it!
I love chocolate and orange together! I have used a thin layer of not-so-sweet orange marmalade to torte chocolate cakes and it has always gotten rave reviews! You could do this with a thin layer of chocolate buttercream or skip the buttercream entirely.
When will it be ready and should I bring my own fork?

HAHA!
oh you made me laugh out loud! 
I hope it turns out ok.
I had a dream last night that she said she hated it!
Now I'm all nervous again! 
I plan on making the FBCT for the top today. And baking the cake tomorrow, and decorating it tomorrow night.
I'll let you all know how it turns out!
