Ingredients:
For the Cake:
- 1 cup whole wheat flour (128 grams)
- 3 tablespoons milk powder (20 grams)
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup whole milk (180 ml)
- 1/2 cup cane sugar (100 grams)
- 1/4 cup oil (60 ml)
- 1 tablespoon instant coffee powder
- 1 teaspoon vanilla essence (5 ml)
- 2 teaspoons vinegar (10 ml)
For Frosting Topping:
- 2/3 cup chocolate ganache (check recipe link in notes below)
- 2 teaspoons instant coffee powder
- 1 teaspoon water (5 ml)
- Few sprinkles (optional)
Instructions:
- Preheat the Pan:
- Place the pan over the gas top. Place a stand or a separator for the cake pan on the bottom so that the cake pan does not directly touch the bottom of the pan.
- Preheat the pan on medium flame for 10 minutes. If you are using a pressure cooker, remove the gasket and whistle from the cooker cover.
- Prepare the Cake Pan:
- Grease the tin with oil or butter. Line with parchment paper at the bottom, or simply dust it with flour.
- Prepare the Cake Batter:
- In a mixing bowl, add milk, cane sugar, instant coffee, oil, and vanilla essence. Mix well to combine together. Whisk it for about a minute using a wired hand whisk.
- Place a sieve over the mixing bowl. Add flour, milk powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Sift them together.
- Gently fold to make a lumps-free batter. Add vinegar and give a quick mix.
- Bake the Cake:
- Pour the batter onto the prepared cake pan. Tap the cake pan to release any air bubbles trapped inside.
- Carefully place the cake pan onto the preheated pan. Cover it and bake on low-medium flame but not simmer for 36 to 40 minutes. Start checking from 35 minutes onwards. A toothpick inserted should come out clean.
- Turn off the heat. Carefully take out the cake pan and allow to stand for 5-10 minutes. Demould the cake and allow to cool down completely.
- Frosting:
- In a small bowl, add instant coffee and water. Mix well and allow coffee to dissolve completely.
- Take the room temperature chocolate ganache. Add the coffee decoction. Mix well. Your chocolate coffee ganache is ready.
- Once the cake has cooled down completely, pour the ganache. Spread all over and cover the cake with the ganache. Allow to set in the refrigerator for a few minutes.
- Cut and serve.
