Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
250 g Butter
150 g Dark chocolate
2 c Coarse, granulated sugar
1 1/4 c Water -- hot
1 tb Dry, instant coffee
1 1/2 c Plain flour
1/4 c Self-raising flour
1/4 c Cocoa
2 Eggs
5 dr Vanilla essence
Grease a 23 cm cake tin quite lavishly.
Chop up the butter and chocolate and combine with the sugar, vanilla
essence, water, and coffee in a double saucepan or heatproof bowl.
Stir over hot water until it has all melted.
Cool the mixture until it's lukewarm.
Transfer the mixture to a large bowl, stir in sifted flours and
cocoa, and then finally, the eggs.
Pour the mixture into the greased pan and bake in a moderately slow
oven (I find 150 C best) for about 1-1/4 to 1-1/2 hours.
Let the cake stand for 10 minutes before turning onto a tray.
This cake is great served either hot or cold.
