would it matter if you use a cake mixer instead?CHELSEA SUGAR: Yes you can use a cake mixer or electric beater instead of a food processor :)

Best chocolate cake recipe I've come across and is now my go to, I have made this cake many times and I usually double the recipe and decorate for kids birthdays. I have a proper cake tin now but if you do use one that clicks shut it will run out unless you close some baking paper in the bottom of it which will seal it shut and hold the mixture in. So yummy! Thanks

Great easy recipe, rich flavour, light in texture, and moist. Due to its consistency I use a solid base tin not a spring form. I doubled the mixture to use in a 30x30cm square 7cm deep tin. Sliced cake through the middle, added filling, topped with icing, turned out perfect.

I made this cake 3 times. The first time it was perfect and really good. Both the 2nd and 3rd times the cake didn't rise at all. I refused the sugar amount half in both of those times and I'm wondering if it was the cause. But I have done that with other recipes as well without a problem...

Love this recipe! I split the mixture between two round/square tins (cook for 30 minutes @160°C fanbake), then spread a layer of ganache in the centre and top with chocolate buttercream icing and shaved dark chocolate :D **note- pays not to use a springform pan as the runny mixture can leak :)
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.
