Number Of Ingredients 15

3/4 cup milk
3 tablespoons instant coffee granules
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
8 tablespoons butter
1 1/2 cups sugar
3 eggs
2 1/4 cups cake flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 cup chopped walnuts
2 tablespoons butter, melted
1 tablespoon unsweetened baking cocoa
1 cup confectioners' sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 -2 tablespoon milk, as needed

This cake was a bit dry, but the flavor was still good. I think I might add a little more butter or oil next time.
