Ingredients

  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 4 large eggs
  • 2 cups sugar
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup strong brewed coffee
  • 2 tablespoons dark rum
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar

Instructions

Making the Cake

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan. In a medium bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside. In a large bowl, beat the eggs, sugar, vegetable oil, water, and vanilla extract together until light and fluffy. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until just combined. Add the brewed coffee and mix again until all the ingredients are incorporated. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan. Bake in the preheated oven for 35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean.

Making the Syrup

While the cake is baking, make the syrup. In a small saucepan, bring the rum and ½ cup of water to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for about 10 minutes or until the mixture has reduced by half. Remove from the heat and let cool. Once the cake is done baking, allow it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Invert the cake onto a serving plate and use a toothpick to poke multiple holes into the cake. Drizzle the syrup over the cake. Allow the cake to soak up the syrup before frosting.

Making the Frosting

To make the frosting, beat the heavy cream, butter, and powdered sugar together until light and fluffy. Spread the frosting over the cake and serve. Enjoy!
