Today I invited Mandy for coffee, and she bought this delicious and moist cake with her. I wish I could tell you it keeps well – but it has all been eaten already!
Cream 6 oz caster sugar with 6oz softened butter. Add 3 beaten eggs one at a time.
Melt 100g good dark chocolate with 2 tbs milk and 2tsp espresso coffee. Stir into the egg, butter mix.
Fold in 6oz self raising flour and 1 1/2 tsp baking powder.
Bake in 180 C Oven for 35 minutes until springy to touch.
When cool Mandy split the cake in half and sandwich with an icing made from butter, icing sugar, cocoa powder and coffee.
Dust with icing sugar and enjoy!
Thank you for the recipie Mandy – I am going to try making it myself this weekend.
