INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 10X15 inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. Set aside.
In a saucepan, melt butter. Add coffee, and 5 teaspoons cocoa,  and bring to a boil. Remove from heat and stir in sugar, flour, baking soda and salt and mix until smooth. Add sour cream and stir until combined, then mix in the eggs and vanilla until well combined.
 Pour batter into prepared pan and bake 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean.

Personal Notes:
* Icing Tip: The only tip for the icing is that you’ll need to work quickly so it’s still spreadable enough to coat every nook and cranny of your cake. I also like to add some instant coffee here too. And the icing’s just as easy to put together as the cake, all in one pot (though you may appreciate a little help from an electric mixer).
* The icing adds such a lovely texture to this cake – it’s like a soft fudge that’s so creamy it melts in your mouth. You can also copy other recipes like the Pioneer Woman Texas Sheet Cake and add a generous cup of pecans on top of the icing or stir them into the icing itself to add a little crunch.
