1
Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch (1.5 L) round cake pans or one 9 x 13-inch (3.5 L) baking pan.
2
Stir sugar with flour, cocoa, baking soda, baking powder and salt in a large bowl. Add eggs, buttermilk, coffee, oil, and vanilla. If you are instead using soured milk, Use 1 tbsp (15 mL) white vinegar plus milk to equal 1 cup (250 mL). Beat with an electric mixer, on medium speed, for 2 minutes; batter will be thin. Divide batter evenly between prepared pans.
3
Bake for 30 to 35 minutes for round pans (35 to 40 minutes for large pan) or until wooden pick inserted in centre comes out clean. Cool, in pans, on a rack for 10 minutes. Turn cakes out and cool completely. Frost (if using) as desired.
