Tip #1
Coffee enhances and complements chocolate flavor, though your cake will still taste amazing without it.
Tip #2
Use unsweetened dark cocoa instead of regular to give this cake an intense chocolate kick, but regular unsweetened cocoa works too.
Tip #3
Start checking doneness at the beginning of the bake range for a perfectly baked cake.
