How to make a mocha cake
Writing this post just makes me hungry(salivating). My favorite cake alright is a mocha cake and I just realize lately that the main ingredients there is coffee and chocolate. Yes, COFFEE, which I’m really not into it, aside from the anti-aging elements it has, I’m not just a caffeine person. Well anyways, going back to my favorite cake, I always wanted to know how to make one, and one author out there sure was kind enough to make a post. Probably the “sweetest” mocha cake recipe I have ever read.*wink*. So here’s how to do it.
