Ingredients

Scale
  • 360 g brewed black coffee
  • 360 g all-purpose flour
  • 300 g granulated sugar
  • 150 g dark brown sugar
  • 75 g unsweetened Dutch cocoa powder
  • 165 g vegetable oil
  • 270 g sour cream
  • 3 large eggs
  • 400 g butter (for buttercream)
  • 660 g powdered sugar

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease and line three round baking pans with parchment paper.
  2. In a bowl, mix dry ingredients: flour, sugars, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In another bowl, whisk together wet ingredients: coffee, vegetable oil, sour cream, eggs, and vanilla extract.
  4. Combine wet and dry mixtures on low speed until just combined; do not overmix.
  5. Divide batter among prepared pans and bake for about 30 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Let cool in pans for 10 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.
