Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams dark chocolate (70% or higher)
- 100 grams unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon instant coffee granules
- 2 tablespoons hot water
- 125 grams granulated sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 75 grams all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar (for dusting)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease and line the bottom of a 9-inch round cake pan with parchment paper.
In a medium heatproof bowl, combine the dark chocolate and butter. Melt them together over a saucepan of gently simmering water (double boiler method), stirring occasionally until smooth. Remove from heat.
In a small bowl, dissolve the instant coffee granules in hot water. Stir this coffee mixture into the melted chocolate and set aside.
In a separate large mixing bowl, whisk the granulated sugar and eggs together until the mixture thickens and turns pale, about 2-3 minutes.
Gently fold the chocolate-coffee mixture into the egg mixture using a rubber spatula until fully incorporated.
Sift the flour, cocoa powder, and salt over the chocolate mixture and fold gently until no streaks of flour remain. Be careful not to overmix.
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan, smoothing the top with the spatula. Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the edges are set but the center is still slightly wobbly.
Remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once cooled, dust the top lightly with powdered sugar before serving.
Cut into wedges and enjoy your rich and decadent Chocolate Coffee Kiss!
