How to Make 1880 Chocolate Spice Cake With Icing
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, cloves, allspice, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, cream together the butter and sugars until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the buttermilk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
- Melt the chocolate chips with the hot coffee and stir in. Add this to the batter and mix well.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 30-40 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- While the cake is cooling, prepare the icing: Beat the butter until smooth. Gradually add the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla, beating until light and fluffy. Add extra milk if needed to reach desired consistency. Spread the icing over the cooled cake.
