Feather-Light Mocha Cake

By Addie

"Toasting nuts before using them in a recipe intensifies flavor-which means you can use less and save a few pennies. Toasted nuts are also less likely to sink in cake batters.”

Ingredients

• 1 (2-layer) package yellow cake mix
• 1 (16-ounce) can milk chocolate frosting
• 2 teaspoons instant coffee powder
• 1 cup sliced almonds
