Preparation

Step 1

For the Cake:

Preheat Oven 350 degrees F.

Butter and flour the baking pans.
Stir together sugar, flour, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda and salt in large bowl.
Add eggs, butter milk, oil and chocolate extract; beat with an electric mixer for minute or two. Slowly add coffee while mixing. (The batter will be thin).
Bake 30 – 35 minutes or until the toothpick test comes out clean.
Cool the cake for 10 – 15 minutes before removing from pan.
Cool completely before frosting.

For the Frosting:

In a large bowl combine the butter, cocoa powder, powdered sugar, chocolate extract and milk. Beat with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy enough for spreading.
Spread on a completely cooled cake and top the frosting with the crushed M&M's® Coffee Nut.
