Step-by-Step Instructions
- Prepare the Streusel by combining streusel ingredients in a mixing bowl until crumbly. Divide the mixture in half, mix cocoa powder into one half, and set aside.
- Dissolve instant coffee in 1 cup of boiling water; stir until dissolved and cool to room temperature.
- Whisk together all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon in a large mixing bowl.
- Whisk eggs, sour cream, cooled coffee mixture, and espresso in a separate bowl until smooth.
- Gently fold the wet mixture into the dry mixture until just combined.
- Layer half of the batter in a greased baking pan, sprinkle chocolate streusel, dollop remaining batter, and sprinkle remaining streusel on top.
- Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F for 30-35 minutes until golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
- Cool the cake in the pan for 10-15 minutes, then whisk powdered sugar with coffee to create icing and drizzle over the cake.

Notes
Ensure coffee mixture cools to room temperature before adding to batter to maintain tenderness. Avoid overmixing for light texture.
