Ingredients

  • For the cake:
  • 1 box vanilla cake mix
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 3 large eggs
  • For the icing:
  • 1 1/2 cups strong hot coffee, brewed
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons sugar
  • 8 ounces mascarpone cheese, room temperature
  • 8 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
  • 1/4 cup sour cream
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/3 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 (8-ounce) container whipped topping
  • unsweetened cocoa, to taste

Directions

Step 1 -Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

Step 2 -Grease and flour a half sheet pan.

Step 3 -In a medium-sized mixing bowl, add the cake mix, the water, the milk, the oil, and the eggs and beat them together with an electric mixer on medium speed until combined, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 4 -Evenly spread the cake batter onto the prepared sheet. Lightly tap the bottom of the sheet pan on the counter to remove any air bubbles.

Step 5 -Bake the cake until it is golden-brown on top and lightly springs back when touched, about 15 minutes.

Step 6 -Combine the hot coffee and the sugar and stir until the sugar has dissolved.

Step 7 -Carefully transfer the cake from oven, and while it is still hot, use a large fork or skewer and poke holes all throughout the surface of the cake.

Step 8 -Pour the hot coffee syrup mixture over the cake.

Step 9 -Allow the cake to soak and cool to room temperature.

Step 10 -In another bowl, beat the mascarpone, the cream cheese, the sour cream, the vanilla extract, and the powdered sugar together.

Step 11 -Fold the whipped topping into the frosting mixture.

Step 12 -Spread the frosting evenly over the cooled cake.

Step 13 -Sift the cocoa over the top of the cake and sprinkle with the chocolate curls.

Step 14 -Refrigerate the cake until it's time to serve.

Step 15 -Slice and serve.
