Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour three 9-inch round cake pans.
In a bowl, mix all dry ingredients: flour, sugars, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
In another bowl, whisk together coffee, oil, sour cream, eggs, and vanilla. Combine wet and dry ingredients until smooth.
Divide batter among prepared pans and bake for about 30 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
