This is a brilliant recipe and fail safe. I don't use a food processor as mine won't take all the mixture. I just sieve dry ingredients together then whisk it all instead. Have had numerous people who don't like chocolate cake fall in love with this one. Guaranteed winner here.

Only took an hour in my oven and I had to turn the temp down to 160 as it started to smell burnt. A bit crispy on top but rose well and tasted good

Awesome cake, made this three times now, my son absolutely loves it. yummmy
Preheat the oven to 180°C (reduce to 160 for fan forced).
Grease and line a 23-25cm cake tin with baking paper.
Dissolve the coffee granules in water, then place all ingredients into a food processor and process until well combined and smooth.
Pour the mixture into the cake tin. Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour 20 minutes to 1 hour 30 minutes, or until a cake tester inserted into the centre of the cake comes out clean.
Cool on a wire rack and when completely cold.
Icing Method
Place Chelsea Icing Sugar and cocoa powder in a medium bowl and stir to combine.
Add softened butter and pour some of the hot water over the top.
Mix together, adding more water as required to achieve a smooth, spreadable consistency.
Spread over the top of the cooled cake.
Note: This is a very runny mixture - don't be alarmed the first time you make it.
Great recipe!It works well with gluten free baking mixes and can easily be made dairy free too, if you change the milk.I have used the recipe to make big cakes and cupcakes as well. It's lovely and moist and always gets compliments!Definitely my go to chocolate cake recipe!
