Preparation
Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. Butter and flour a 9×13-inch cake pan. Set aside.
In a large bowl, sift together flour, sugar, cocoa powder, and baking soda. Whisk in the kosher salt.
In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, sour cream, canola oil and vanilla extract until it looks homogenous and creamy.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir together with a stiff spatula.
Pour in the piping hot coffee. Keep stirring until all the liquid is incorporated and it is a homogenized cake batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan.
Place in the oven and bake for 50 to 55 minutes or until a toothpick poked in the center comes out clean.
Take the cake out of the oven and set it on a baking rack to cool. After about 30 minutes, spread the frosting on top.
Cut and serve the cake straight from the pan. Enjoy!
