Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease 2, 9-inch round cake pans. Dust pans with flour. In bowl, gradually add coffee to cocoa, stirring constantly; let stand until cool. In a separate bowl cream butter and sugars together until light and fluffy. Add egg yolks; beat until batter is thick. Add coffee mixture. In small bowl, dissolve baking soda in sour cream. Alternately add sour cream mixture and flour to coffee mixture; beat well after each addition. Fold in egg whites. Pour batter into prepared pans; bake for 35-40 minutes.
