Have made this cake successfully for years and it makes a quick dessert. Try warming squares of cake in microwave, serve with Hershey chocolate syrup and vanilla ice-cream. Yum!

the cake looks good but the only thing I would do is omit the coffee for hot water or hot chocolate

Perfect chocolate cake........ A couple of tips thou. For a moist chocolate cake do not leave it untill the skewer comes out clean Make sure there is still a little bit of chocolate cake residue on the skewer. Once it is at the stage take it out of the oven and allow to cool. That is how you get the mudcake consistency, timing is everything. And to avoid bits of white flour through your cake be sure to rub all of the dry ingredients together between your hands to remove lumps and mix well or use a sieve then add the wet ingredients. Makes the perfect cake. I always add a little salt to my chocolate icing for that umami salty sweet taste and sometimes I sprinkle broken up salted caramel oreos on top. My babies love it lol

I can't believe Chelsea hasn't tested this cake yet, it is brilliant, it looks and tastes delicious not to mention minimal washing up as well. It's a win win. Thank you.CHELSEA: Hi there, oops - we have just updated this as we have actually made this cake quite a few times now. We agree with you - it's easy and delish! :-)

This is hands down the best chocolate cake recipe I've used so far. Never lasts long in our house.With the cocoa I also chuck in a bit of hot chocolate powder, gives it that chocolate/salty taste. Chocolate buttercream on top... omg.

Made this substituting 3 tablespoons of bottled applesauce instead of the eggs and 1 cup of Nakula coconut sour cream instead of buttermilk to make it vegan. No-one guessed it was vegan and everyone loved it. Thank you.

I made this cake yesterday, made it exactly according to the instructions, texture is good but it was bitter. I am going to try it again soon with maybe not so strong coffee.

Fill a large cake tin (approx 23cm) to only half way.
