Using my
Basic Birthday Cake recipe, I created this 2-layer mocha cake.
I used a boxed chocolate cake mix for the cake part. The only additional ingredient I added was instant coffee powder. I added 2-3 tablespoons of coffee powder to the cake mix, and added just a tad extra water to the batter.
Also, I added about 3 tablespoons of coffee powder to the whipped cream as well.
You can add more or less coffee powder, depending on how strong of a coffee flavor you prefer.
Lastly, I topped the cake with mini
Oreo cookies and chocolate sprinkles to decorate.
