• Step 1

  Quick Directions:
  - Preheat oven to 350°F [180°C]

  - Grease and line base of 8" pans then flour sides, or use 24 cupcake papers.

  - Whisk all the ingredients together.

  - Bake for 35-40 mins (cake) or 18-20 mins (cupcakes)

  - Cool, frost, inhale.

• Step 2

  Preheat the oven to 350°F [180°C].

  - Grease the bottom and sides of two 8”round cake pans. Line the base with a round of baking [parchment] paper, then tap flour around the exposed sides.

  - If making cupcakes, line 20 or 24 cups with paper liners – depending on if you want large or small cupcakes.

• Step 3

  Sift the dry ingredients into a large bowl.

  Whisk together the buttermilk, oil, eggs and vanilla in a jug.

• Step 4

  Add wet ingredients to dry and whisk well until well combined.

  Add hot coffee and whisk again, scraping down the bowl to make sure it is all combined.

• Step 5

  ***This batter is REALLY THIN*** like chocolate soup pretending to be cake batter, it is supposed to be this way, just trust in the magic of the oven.

• Step 6

  For Cupcakes:
  - Divide batter evenly across the cups. It will look like there is not enough bit you only need a couple Tbsp in each.
  - Bake 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
  - Cool in pan 5 minutes before turning onto a rack to cool completely.
  - Frost

• Step 7

  For Layer Cake:
  - Divide evenly into the two prepared pans and bake for 35 to 40 minutes, until a cake tester comes out clean.
  - Cool in the pans for 20 minutes, run a knife around the edge, turn out onto a cooling rack. Remove parchment paper and let cool completely.
  - Trim tops flat, place 1 layer on a plate and spread the top with frosting.
  - Place the second layer on top, spread the frosting evenly on the top and sides of the cake.
