The Best Red Velvet Cake

Assalamualaikum everyone,
Its Eid and I was having some guests over to my house so I decided on baking a Red Velvet Recipe that I stumbled upon while browsing the internet.
its a bit different from the ones I've tried before coz for the first time I found an RVC with coffee brew in it.
I was absolutely excited to try it although a bit sceptical at first but I was very happy with the end result.I made it in a square pan to make it easier for me to cut and slice the cake into small pieces.
I edited the recipe a bit because the actual recipe is a little bit too sweet even for a sweet toothed person like me.
Lets check it out.
