INGREDIENTS:
THIS RECIPE HAS BEEN UPDATED on April 8th, 2024. I would recommend using the updated quantities, but if you would like to stick to the original recipe, you can find the recipe quantities on the recipe card on my blog post here: cakesbymk.com/...
Chocolate Cake
▢1¾ cups (210 g) flour - regular all purpose
▢½ cup (50 g) cocoa powder - unsweetened
▢1 tsp baking soda
▢1½ tsp baking powder
▢½ tsp salt
▢¾ cup (170 g) unsalted butter
▢1¼ cups (200 g) dark chocolate - I use 50% dark but any good quality semi-sweet chocolate will work
▢⅓ cup (80 g) milk - cold
▢1½ cups (300 g) white granulated sugar
▢1½ tbsp instant coffee powder
▢⅓ cup (70 g) unflavoured vegetable oil - I use canola oil
▢2 tsp vanilla essence/extract
▢3 large eggs - room temperature
▢½ cup (110 g) hot water
Bake at 180C/350F conventional for 38-40 minutes. If using a convention (fan) oven, reduce the remperature to 160 °C (320°F) with the fan on. Remember to grease the bottom and sides of two 8 inch cake tins (mine are 3 inch deep), and also line the bottom of the tin with baking/parchment paper.
IMPORTANT: Do not open the oven door too early to check the cake otherwise this can cause the cake to sink in the middle. Enjoy :)

- 1 cup (226 g) cream
- 4 tsp cocoa powder - unsweetened
