      Every time I make this cake my friends rave endlessly. The buttercream is perfect. I know it looks like a lot of frosting but because it's not overly sweet you can use all the recipe makes. Yum!

      I modified the recipe to be gluten free, but otherwise followed it as well as I could. The icing was the best! I couldn't stop licking my fingers. If I make it again, I'll put a bit of cocoa powder in the batter to make it nice and dark. As is, it's a light brown.

      This is a beautiful chocolate cake and I am not a chocolate lover. May I suggest using coffee liqueur rather than the glaze suggested - gives a more pronounced flavor. Thanks for submitting.

      Made this one this weekend. It was even better than we anticipated. It was so moist! sometimes buttercreams are too buttery for me , but this frosting was a great balance of sweet and buttery. We used instant espresso and the coffee flavor wasn't over-powering at all. It did exactly what it needed to do: enhanced the chocolate flavor and and added another flavor dimension. Highly reccommended!!

      Awesome cake! I love coffee and chocolate, and this is no exception!! I used 1/2 butter and 1/2 butter flavored shortening for the cake but all butter for the frosting. I only had to use 3 cups of powdered sugar in the frosting and 2 T. of the coffee milk mixture as it was sweet enough. The coffee enhances and deepens the chocolate flavor for a blend that is superb! Thanks, Annacia!!

      This was good, but I was expecting better. I couldn't taste the coffee glaze. Also, if I 'm going to put that much butter in something, I expect it to be heavenly.
