The BEST Chocolate Cake

Happy New Year’s Eve! Let’s celebrate with this AMAZING Chocolate Cake! This is my all time favorite Chocolate Cake recipe. Super moist, chocolatey and soft this is my go to cake for parties, birthdays or just because.

I used Kitchen Aid’s Precision Press to make a strong cup of coffee to go in this cake. Rich, smooth and full bodied. The fresh brewed coffee brings out the chocolate flavor in the cake.

Kitchen Aid’s Precision Press has an integrated timer and scale that makes it simple to measure brew time and the precise ratio of coffee grounds to water all within the carafe to achieve a full flavored and full bodied French Press brew.

Now for my favorite part of any cake: The Frosting. This chocolate buttercream frosting is fluffy, chocolatey and rich with just the right amount of sweetness.

The perfect topping to this chocolate cake!
