Directions

Add coffee to water and heat just to boiling.
Remove from heat immediately and let stand 2 minutes.
Then strain through very fine strainer or through cheesecloth to remove all grounds.
Cool before adding to frosting.
(Never use leftover regular coffee.
This strong infusion is necessary for a good rich coffee flavor.) Cream butter until soft and smooth, and gradually blend in sugar and salt.
Slowly work in the fresh coffee infusion (about 3 tablespoons) until mixture is the proper consistency for spreading.
Spread between layers and on top and sides of cake.
Enough for two 8-inch layers.
