I used a springform pan about 10" or a tad more. Of course, it split on top and I had to play with the temps in my Fisher-Price oven but.....WOW, it was moist and a real treat! Nice recipe and it comes together really quickly. I used the 1/2 espresso 1/2 hot H2o suggestion. <strong><em>So happy you enjoyed it, Martha! And remember if you have leftover, freezing works great too!</em></strong> Made this cake this morning. and just had a piece after lunch. I used a springform pan about 10″ or a tad more.

I often make a cake that looks like this for my kids but I don't put in coffee because I don't know if the kiddos would like that. I'm looking forward to trying it though. I sometimes use a huge hunk of chocolate and melt it down slowly with butter instead of cocoa powder. Thank you Michelle. You've sent me a bit of inspiration today. :) Julie <strong><em>Hope you made something fabulous Julie :)</em></strong> Yummy Michelle, thanks for sharing.

Although we’ve emailed about this, for the sake of any future readers, it’s 2 cups of coffee–I think when I referred to the “cup” I meant to be clear that I meant an American measuring cup size cup and not a teensy espresso cup or a mug or something :)
