A rich coffee taste that satisfies the heart, even for the non-coffee drinkers. Best if eaten really cold, right out of the fridge! Oh so delicious!

Time 4h5m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
¾ cup powdered milk
¾ cup shortening
1 ½ cups white sugar
4 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup water
⅓ cup white sugar
5 tablespoons instant coffee granules
1 (1.3 ounce) envelope whipped topping mix

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 9x13-inch pan.
  • Sift together the flour, baking powder and powdered milk. Set aside.
  • Cream together shortening and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs, one at a time, then stir in the vanilla. Stir in the flour mixture until incorporated. Batter will be thick.
  • Pour batter into prepared pan. Bake in the preheated oven for 40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Prick cake with a fork at 1 inch intervals. Allow to cool.
  • For the glaze: In a saucepan, combine the sugar, water and instant coffee. Bring mixture to a boil, and cook for 2 minutes. Pour the syrup over the warm cake. Cool thoroughly. Prepare whipped topping according to package directions, then frost cake. Refrigerate for 3 hours or overnight before serving.
