Cake
2 cups sugar
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup Dutch-processed cocoa powder
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
2 large eggs
1 cup whole milk
1/2 cup vegetable oil
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup strong brewed coffee
Icing
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup margarine, softened
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 (1 lb) box powdered sugar

1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease and flour two 9-inch round baking pans, in order to make 2 cake layers.
2
In a large bowl, stir together sugar, flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Add eggs, milk, oil, and vanilla. Beat all on medium speed with electric mixer for 2 minutes.
3
Stir in boiling, strong, hot coffee; batter will be thin.
4
Pour batter into prepared pans. Bake 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean.
5
Cool 10 minutes, then remove cake layers from pans to wire racks.
6
While cake is cooling, make the icing. To make icing, mix cream cheese, margarine, and vanilla extract. Add sugar and beat until creamy and smooth.
7
To finish cake, make sure the layers are completely cool. Take one round layer, place it on a serving plate, and top it with a layer of icing. Then place the other round layer on top, and ice the entire cake.
