Beat butter and granulated sugar in large mixer bowl at medium-high speed until creamy. Beat in eggs, 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in melted chocolate and vanilla. With mixer at low speed, add dry ingredients alternately with bourbon mixture, beginning and ending with dry ingredients just until blended.
Pour batter into prepared pan. Bake 70 to 75 minutes, until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool cake in pan on wire rack 15 minutes. Invert onto rack, unmold and cool completely. Brush top and sides with remaining 2 tablespoons bourbon. (Can be made ahead. Tightly wrap and store at room temperature up to 2 days.)
