Instructions
  1. In a large bowl, blend the sugar and oil; add the water and vanilla and stir until blended.
  2. In a separate bowl, combine the dry ingredients.
  3. In another bowl, combine the milk and coffee.
  4. Add the dry ingredients to the sugar and oil mixture, along with the milk and coffee mixture.
  5. Pour the batter into two 9-inch cake pans (greased); bake at 350 degrees for 40 minutes or until a wooden pick comes out clean when inserted into the middle of the cake. Cool.
  6. Prepare the chocolate frosting by combining all of the ingredients and mixing at high speed until smooth and of a desired consistency (adding more soy milk if necessary).
  7. Once the cake is cool, spread the bottom cake layer with the raspberry jam; add the top cake layer and frost the top and sides of the whole cake with the frosting. Sprinkle the top of the cake with the fresh raspberries.
