Once the cake has cooled completely, generously frost it with the mocha icing. If desired, sprinkle the top with chopped walnuts for added texture and flavor. (Approximately 5 minutes)
For a richer mocha flavor, consider using espresso instead of regular brewed coffee.
If the icing is too thick, add a teaspoon of hot coffee at a time until you reach the desired consistency.
Store any leftover icing in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Allow it to come to room temperature and re-whip before using.
