Instructions
In a large bowl, combine the first six ingredients; beat on low speed for 30 seconds. Beat on medium for 4 minutes.
Pour into a greased and floured 10-in. fluted tube pan.
Bake at 350° for 35-40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pan to a wire rack to cool completely.
For icing, in a small bowl, beat the butter, confectioners' sugar, cocoa, creamer, extract and enough coffee to achieve desired drizzling consistency.
Garnish with pecans if desired.
Recommended wine: Cream Sherry, Port, Moscato Dasti
Cake works really well with Cream Sherry, Port, and Moscato d'Asti. A common wine pairing rule is to make sure your wine is sweeter than your food. Delicate desserts go well with Moscato d'Asti, nutty desserts with cream sherry, and caramel or chocolate desserts pair well with port. One wine you could try is Macauley Old Vine Zinfandel. It has 4.7 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 52 dollars.
Macauley Old Vine Zinfandel
With an initial bouquet of raspberry and a recurring note of maple, this is a full-bodied wine with freshness and acidity. It has an inviting layer of spice and hints of freshly baked cherry pie. A high-wire balancing act of weigh and freshness.Blend: 92% Zinfandel, 8% Petite Sirah
