Learn How it Works...
Cake
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups sugar
3/4 cup Land O Lakes® Butter, softened
3 (1-ounce) squares unsweetened baking chocolate, melted, cooled
3 large Land O Lakes® Eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla
1 1/3 cups hot strong coffee
Frosting
2/3 cup Land O Lakes® Butter, softened
3 cups powdered sugar
3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa
1 teaspoon vanilla
3 to 4 tablespoons cooled strong coffee
STEP 1
Heat oven to 350°F. Grease and lightly flour 2 (9-inch) round cake pans; set aside.
STEP 2
Combine flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt in bowl; set aside.
STEP 3
Place sugar and 3/4 cup butter in another bowl; beat at medium speed, scraping bowl often, until creamy. Add cooled chocolate, eggs and 2 teaspoons vanilla; continue beating until well mixed. Add flour mixture to butter mixture alternately with 1 1/3 cups coffee, beating at low speed just until well mixed.
STEP 4
Pour batter evenly into prepared pans. Bake 20-30 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool 10 minutes. Remove from pans. Cool completely.
STEP 5
Beat 2/3 cup butter in bowl at medium speed until creamy. Gradually add powdered sugar, cocoa, 1 teaspoon vanilla and enough coffee for desired spreading consistency, beating well after each addition.
STEP 6
Place 1 cake layer onto serving plate. Spread 1/2 cup frosting over top; top with second cake layer. Spread remaining frosting over top and sides of cake.
