For the Cake:
1 ½ cups (190g) all-purpose flour
½ cup (50g) unsweetened cocoa powder
1 tsp baking soda
½ tsp baking powder
¼ tsp salt
1 cup (200g) granulated sugar
½ cup (120ml) vegetable oil
2 large eggs
½ cup (120ml) strong brewed coffee (cooled)

For the Mocha Glaze (optional):
½ cup (60g) powdered sugar
1 tbsp cocoa powder
1–2 tbsp brewed coffee (adjust for consistency)
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch round or square cake pan.
Mix dry ingredients: In a bowl, sift together flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
Whisk wet ingredients: In another bowl, mix sugar, oil, eggs, vanilla, coffee, and buttermilk until smooth.
Combine wet and dry: Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet, stirring just until combined. Don’t overmix.
Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 30–35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
Cool: Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.
Make glaze (optional): Mix powdered sugar, cocoa, and coffee to make a smooth glaze. Drizzle over cooled cake.
Serve with hot espresso or a chilled mocha latte for the ultimate coffee-lovers’ combo.
