Recipe Instructions

Preheat the oven to 275 degrees. Grease and flour a 9- by 2-inch round cake pan.

Combine the coffee, bourbon, and chocolate in the top of a double boiler. Place over simmering water and stir until the chocolate melts. Whisk in the butter, a little at a time, until all of it is melted. Remove from the heat, transfer to a large bowl, and beat in the sugar.

Sift together the flour, soda, and salt into a bowl. Add the sifted ingredients to the coffee mixture. Beat well for about 1 minute. Add the eggs and vanilla and beat until the batter is smooth. Pour the batter into the pan.

Bake for 1 1/2 hours, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let the cake cool in the pan for 30 minutes, then turn out onto a rack. When ready to serve, dust the top of the cake with confectioners' sugar.

This recipe yields 10 servings.
