For a richer flavor, try using brown sugar instead of white sugar. Add a handful of chopped walnuts or pecans to the batter for added texture. A simple glaze of powdered sugar and milk can elevate this cake beautifully. Ensure the coffee mixture is completely cooled before adding the flour to prevent gluten development.
