Henrie, you're killing me with all these wonderful desserts, lol! Interesting, my grammie used to make a chocolate cake and I can remember her putting coffee in it. Could be something similar. Of course at the time, all us grandkids thought putting coffee in a cake was weird, lol! I bet this is very yummy. Saving it! A 5 for you and grammie.
