Melt chocolate and cool slightly. Beat butter until light, add icing sugar gradually, then egg yolks and melted chocolate.

Place first sponge layer on serving plate. Spread with buttercream, repeat with remaining layers.

Stack all layers with buttercream between each. Press gently to adhere. Chill for 2 hours.
