Words & Brush Recipe Corner: ONE BOWL CHOCOLATE FUDGE CAKE

ONE BOWL CHOCOLATE FUDGE CAKE

By Lisa Starr

www.lisa-starr.com

INGREDIENTS:

100g dark chocolate 
100g butter
1 1/4 cups sugar
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 eggs
1/3 cup cocoa
1 cup flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt (Maldon best)
1 cup boiling water
1 tablespoon coffee granules*

TOPPING
100g dark chocolate
1/2 cup cream

* Nescafe or Jacobs or similar


DIRECTIONS: 


1: Microwave butter and chocolate till just melted, stir till smooth then stir in oil, vanilla and sugar.
2: Add eggs and mix then stir in flour, cocoa, baking powder and salt.
3: Add coffee granules to boiling water and stir till dissolved then add to bowl to make a runny batter.
4: Pour into a lined 22 cm tin and bake at 160 C for approximately 50 minutes or until a skewer comes out clean. The top of the cake may crack a little but this is to be expected. 
4: Melt chocolate and cream in the microwave in 30 second increments so that it doesn't boil, stir till smooth, then pour over the cake and allow to set. See notes for alternative frosting method.

COOK'S NOTES: I love that this cake is not too sweet and I recommend always using 60% chocolate or more. Remember if it doesn't give the percentage on the packaging then it's always lower grade, sweeter chocolate. I love the ease of this pour-over ganache but if you prefer a spread-on frosting then refrigerate the melted ganache for 2 hours before spreading over cake.

ENJOY !
