I made this for a friend at work on her birthday. It was a hit, by the end of lunch there was only one piece left. I couldn't find instant espresso mix so I used instant coffee and added a little more than the 2 tsp. I also added a package of cream cheese to the frosting.

I made it for my mother in-laws birthday because I know how much she likes cappuccino/espresso. I had to substitute the espresso powder (which I never heard of) for FINELY ground espresso from Starbucks. I was a little concerned that it might end up gritty but it didn't. It tasted great! I work at a Salon and the employees and customers all loved it and wanted the recipe. The cake was gone by the end of the day. If I would change anything I would have added more espresso to the cake. I could taste it more in the icing then the cake itself. The semi sweetened crushed chocolate was really good because you could taste little chocolate chunks throughout the cake. Very Good!

This was so easy to make and so very very good! I didn't have espresso powder so I used a little extra decaf instant coffee. And I just used chocolate chips instead of chopped up bars. If serving cold pop a slice in the microwave for about 10 seconds and all that goodness is multiplied.

I made this cake to bring to my office for a birthday party and everyone absolutely LOVED it!!!! So rich and delicious! Even people who don't eat a lot of cake or shouldn't eat cake (allergy) came back for second slices! Great recipe. It's a keeper!
