For an even richer chocolate flavor, use dark cocoa powder. The hot coffee intensifies the chocolate flavor of the cake. Don't skip this ingredient! To make a layer cake, divide the batter evenly among three greased and floured 8-inch round cake pans. Reduce baking time to approximately 25-30 minutes. For a simple frosting, mix together powdered sugar, cocoa powder, milk, and a touch of vanilla extract until smooth. Adjust the amount of milk to reach your desired consistency.
