This deliciously simple recipe for mud cake can be tripled to make the three bases of the Triple layered FruChocs mud cake seen in Adelady magazine, issue 7. 

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.
