2 teaspoons instant espresso coffee granules
1 tablespoon cool water

Frost side and top of cake with frosting. Pipe remaining whipped topping mixture around top of cake. Refrigerate 1 to 2 hours or until chilled. Garnish top of cake with espresso beans.

This cake is the perfect balance of sweetness and bitterness. It's not too sweet, but it's not too bitter either.
