Ingredients

Servings

• 2 cup All-purpose flour
• 1.5 cup Granulated sugar
• 0.5 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 cup Butter
• 2 large Eggs
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 cup Buttermilk
• 0.5 cup Strong brewed coffee
• 0.25 cup Godiva chocolate liqueur
• 1.5 cup Whipping cream
• 0.5 cup Powdered sugar
• 4 ounces Godiva dark chocolate
• 5 drop Green food coloring

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch round cake pan.
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
3. Add the butter, eggs, vanilla extract, buttermilk, brewed coffee, and Godiva chocolate liqueur to the dry ingredients. Mix until well combined.
4. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
5. Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
6. In a separate bowl, whip the whipping cream until soft peaks form. Gradually add the powdered sugar and continue to whip until stiff peaks form.
7. Once the cake has cooled, spread the whipped cream over the top and sides of the cake.
8. Melt the Godiva dark chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth.
9. Drizzle the melted chocolate over the whipped cream, creating a pattern resembling Irish eyes.
10. Add a few drops of green food coloring to the remaining whipped cream and pipe decorative swirls on top of the cake.
11. Refrigerate the cake for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld.
12. Serve chilled and enjoy!
