12 servings
- •2.25 cups all-purpose flour
- •1.5 teaspoons baking soda
- •0.5 cup unsweetened cocoa
- •0.75 cup strong brewed coffee, cold
- •0.75 cup coffee flavored liqueur
- •0.5 cup shortening
- •1 cup brown sugar
- •3 egg yolks
- •3 egg whites
- •0.25 cup white sugar
- •6 tablespoons butter, softened
- •4 cups confectioners' sugar
- •3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa
- •3 tablespoons coffee flavored liqueur
- •2 tablespoons hot brewed coffee
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans. Sift together the flour, baking soda, and cocoa. Set aside.
- Combine the coffee and coffee liqueur. Set aside. In a large bowl, cream together the shortening and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg yolks one at a time. Beat in the flour mixture alternately with the coffee and coffee liqueur, mixing just until incorporated. In a separate bowl, beat egg whites until soft peaks form, add 1/4 cup sugar, then continue beating until whites form stiff peaks. Gently fold egg whites into the coffee mixture.
- Pour batter into prepared pans. Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Allow to cool 10 minutes in pans, then turn out on wire racks to cool completely before frosting.
- For the coffee frosting: In a medium bowl, cream butter until fluffy. Beat in confectioners' sugar and cocoa. Mix in coffee liqueur and hot coffee. Beat frosting until it thickens to spreading consistency.
