With the holidays approaching, my cooking and baking are in high gear! I’ve been experimenting in the kitchen and today I have a recipe that combines my two loves; coffee and chocolate! Introducing coffee chocolate cake! See how to make this yummy treat below.
Coffee Chocolate Cake
INGREDIENTS:
- 10 tablespoons of soft, unsalted butter
- 1 2/3 cup of sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon of Vanilla Extract
- 1/2 teaspoon of salt
- 1 1/2 cup of white flour
- 1/2 cup + 1/3 cup of unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon of baking soda
- 1 teaspoon of baking powder
- Lavazza Keurig® K-Cup® Classico Pods // 1 1/2 cup of Lavazza coffee (cooled to warm)
I use Lavazza Keurig® K-Cup® Classico Pods every day because it’s high-quality coffee. The K-Pods are manufactured by Keurig®, for use in Keurig® K-Cup® systems and you can have a delicious cup of coffee ready in less than a minute. The Classico flavor is a balanced roast and has a rich, full-bodied flavor. The best part is it has no aftertaste!
DIRECTIONS:
- Heat the oven to 350°F.
- Grab a square, 9-inch baking pan and butter generously.
- Make your Lavazza Keurig® K-Cup® Classico Pods in your K-Cup machine. Once done, leave to cool.
- Once you’ve put butter on the bottom of the pan and sides, lightly flour the bottom and sides.
- Put softened butter and sugar in a large bowl, stir until smooth with a whisk or spoon
- Blend in eggs one at a time.
- Mix in vanilla and salt.
- Sift flour, baking soda, baking powder, and cocoa into a large bowl and pour in the cooled coffee.
- Stir the mixture until smooth and free of lumps.
- Pour the batter in the baking pan.
- Bake for 40 minutes.
- Insert a toothpick in the center to make sure it’s done.
Let the pan cool for twenty minutes and use a knife around the edges of the pan, invert the cake onto the rack, and remove the pan. Invert again onto another rack and let cool right side up until just warm.
Pro tip: If you’re making this for a holiday party, put some crushed candy canes or sprinkles on top for a festive twist!

This sure sounds like my kind of cake. Coffee and chocolate paired together is always a good idea. Knowing me, I’d have a cup of coffee to drink as I snack too!
Seriously sounds so good!! My mom would love this recipe!

This is such a creative recipe!! It’s the first time that I see a recipe using Keurig coffee. I’d love to try it!!
What is better than the combination of coffee and chocolate? This looks amazing!
Chic on the Cheap
Looks awesome Will make it for sure
This looks delish, and easy enough to make!
Will definitely make. but will use coffee from my French press. K-Cups are an insult to good coffee.
At what point do you add the sifted flour mixture to the Butter/egg/sugar?
The directions say when, it’s after you’ve mixed in the vanilla, salt, eggs, butter and sugar.
Then you should say ‘in the same bowl.’
Nowhere does it say to combine the flour mixture In bowl 2 with the butter egg mixture in bowl 1. Rewrite the instructions. I’m assuming the four mixture does not go into a desperate bowl and is just added to the first bowl with the butter sugar.
Rita, thank you.
