Grandma Sarahs Devils Food Cake with Coffee Icing
Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease two 9-inch round cake pans.
-
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
-
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
-
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the buttermilk. Mix until just combined.
-
In a small bowl, dissolve the instant coffee granules in hot water. Add the coffee mixture to the batter and mix until smooth.
-
Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
-
Remove the cakes from the oven and let them cool in the pans for 10 minutes. Then, transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
-
In a separate bowl, prepare the coffee icing by creaming together the powdered sugar, butter, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
-
Once the cakes have cooled, spread a layer of coffee icing on top of one cake layer. Place the second cake layer on top and frost the entire cake with the remaining icing.

Serve and enjoy!
