Directions:
- Take a 9in round cake pan and line the bottom with some parchment paper. Add a coat of cooking spray to the bottom and sides of the pan so your cake doesn’t stick when you bake it later on.
- Pour your flour, salt, cocoa powder, baking soda, and granulated sugar into a bowl and mix until well-combined.
- Add in your dark brown sugar and olive oil, then whisk until incorporated. Lastly, pour your coffee and vinegar and mix until you get a smooth batter texture
- Pour your batter into the cake pan you prepared. Make sure it’s not overfilled to give your cake room to rise.
- Bake your cake for 30-35 minutes, or until the toothpick test comes out clean with just a few crumbs sticking on the toothpick.
- Let your cake cool for 10 minutes before adding your glaze or frosting.
