Time :: 35 minutes
Ingredients
360g plain flour
600g caster sugar
150g cocoa powder
1 tsp baking powder
2 tsp bi-carb soda
1 tsp salt
250ml milk
125ml vegetable oil
6 eggs (room temperature)
1 tsp vanilla paste
250ml hot, strong coffee
Method
- Pre-heat oven to 170°C fan-forced. Grease three 15cm x 5cm round cake pans and line with baking paper.
- Sift flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, bi-carb soda and salt into a bowl and set aside.
- Combine the milk, oil, eggs and vanilla in a large bowl, then slowly add the dry ingredients and mix on low.
- Add the coffee to the batter and mix.
- Divide the batter equally between the three baking pans and bake for 25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the centre comes out clean. Don’t overcook the cake — you want it to be fudgey!
- Set aside and allow to cool completely.
