Ingredients

  • 200 g Butter Unsalted, softened
  • 200 g Caster Sugar
  • 4 medium Eggs
  • 200 g Self Raising Flour
  • 40 g Cocoa Powder
  • 2 tbsp Coffee Granules Instant, dissolved in 2 tbsp boiling water
  • 50 g Chocolate Chips Dark
  • 150 ml Double Cream
  • 100 g Dark Chocolate finely chopped

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 180°C (160°C fan).
  • Grease and line a 20cm round cake tin.
  • In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and caster sugar until light and fluffy.
  • Beat in the eggs, one at a time, adding a little flour with each egg to prevent curdling.
  • Sift in the remaining flour and cocoa powder, and fold into the mixture until well combined.
  • Stir in the dissolved coffee and chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared cake tin and smooth the top with a spatula.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean.
  • Remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the tin for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • To make the chocolate cream, heat the double cream in a small saucepan over low heat until it begins to simmer.
  • Remove the cream from the heat and add the finely chopped dark chocolate. Stir until the chocolate is fully melted and the mixture is smooth.
  • Allow the chocolate cream to cool slightly, then spread it over the top of the cooled cake.
  • Let the chocolate cream set before serving.
