This is a great cake I make often. It can be a snack cake or can go to potluck or also makes a wonderful birthday cake. Very moist and chocolaty. I sent this recipe to my grandmother and she now makes this cake often also. Our whole family loves it! A great way to use that left over coffee!

    Tasty cake and so easy to make! I did mix the ingredients in a bowl though - just felt easier to do it that way! Made 1/2 recipe and baked in a round 9" pan for 30 minutes - perfect! I also omitted the topping and frosted with #105059. The cake does have that dryish quality that no-dairy cakes tend to have - it's moist, but lacks the smoothness of butter, sort of - but it is wonderful for those who can't have dairy, and certainly goes down well with everyone else too! Thanks for sharing!

    Nice and easy to do with a good taste. The top of the cake cracked when baked but it still tasted good. A bit crumbly though.

    Five stars all the way! This was so easy and so good--we will definitely be making this cake often. Actually I think since this recipe uses staples that we always have on hand and is so quick and easy to make it can be classified as an emergency cake--for occassions like "someone is coming over and I need something to go with coffee fast". Thanks Theresa for posting this keeper cake recipe.
