For the cake batter
- 120 grams all purpose flour 1 cup
- 100 grams castor sugar or fine granulated sugar 1/2 cup
- 25 grams cocoa powder 1/4 cup
- 60 grams melted salted butter 1/4 cup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla essence 5 ml
- 130 ml milk, room temperature 1/2 cup
- 1 full egg
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
For the hot fudge mixture
- 20 grams cocoa powder 3 tablespoons
- 100 grams castor sugar 1/2 cup
- 100 grams brown sugar 1/2 cup
- 290 ml boiling hot water 1 & 1/4 cup
- 1 teaspoon instant coffee powder
For the cake batter
In a bowl combine the all purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking powder and 1/2 cup of castor sugar. Mix these dry ingredients really well
Add milk, melted butter, vanilla essence and egg to the dry ingredients and continue whisking
Pour this batter into a greased baking dish. I used an 8 inch glass baking dish. Spread it well all around the dish
For the fudge mixture
In a small bowl, combine the cocoa powder, remaining 1/2 cup castor sugar and brown sugar. Mix well and sprinkle this powder all over the cake batter
Take the boiling hot water, add the coffee powder and stir well. Pour this over the cake batter and fudge mixture. Make sure its all over the cake and bake immediately at 160 degrees C for 35 to 40 mins or until the center of this cake feels wobbly but firm
Serve hot immediately once out of the oven. Taste best when served with vanilla icecream
The brown sugar I had was really thick, I ground it before using it
Dust the cake with icing sugar if you'd like that
