Molasses Spice Cake image

This recipe has been in my personal collection for 30 years. The spice flavors are nicely balanced, and the molasses and coffee make it dark and moist. You can use either instant coffee with 1 cup boiling water or brewed coffee in this sheet cake. -Dawn Lowenstein, Huntingdon Valley, Pennsylvania
