  1. I am making the cake part of this recipe. In the list of ingredients you have listed instant coffee and one egg. In the directions you have omitted adding the instant coffee and mention eggs (more than one??).

    Let me know.

    1. Sorry! Silly mistake. It had to be 1 egg in the directions. Instant coffee has to be mixed together with the dry ingredients. I fixed it now, thank you!

  2. I wanted to make this gluten free for my friend's birthday, do you know if I should use the same amount of flour but just use gluten free flour? Thanks!

    1. I don't cook very much with gluten free flour and I haven't tried it in this cake, so I cannot guarantee that the result will be the same with gluten free flour. But feel free to experiment! I would try using the same amount of GF flour.
