Eggless Chocolate Coffee Cake
Ingredients
- 1+1/4 cup all purpose flour
- 1/4 cup Cocoa powder
- 1+1/4 Cup Sugar (powdered)
- 1 tsp Baking powder
- 1/2 tsp Baking Soda
- 3 tsp Instant coffee powder
- 3/4 cup yoghurt
- 1/2 cup Olive oil
- 3 tbsp Milk
- 1 tsp Vanilla Essence
Instructions
-
Preheat oven to 180 Degrees Celsius. Grease a round cake pan, flour it lightly and keep it ready.
-
Sift flour, baking soda, baking powder, cocoa powder, coffee powder together and keep it ready.
-
In another bowl whisk together yogurt and powdered sugar. Now add vegetable oil, Â milk, vanilla essence and mix it well.
-
Add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients and fold gently till a batter of dropping consistency is formed.
-
Pour the batter into the 8 inch cake pan and bake at same temperature for 40 minutes or till a tooth-pick inserted comes out clean.
-
Take the pan out of the oven and once cooled down completely invert on to a plate and let it cool down completely.
-
Now lets prepare the Chocolate Ganache. You can start the preparations when your cake is in the oven.
Chocolate Ganache Recipe
Ingredients
- 1+1/3 cup Semi-sweet Chocolate chips
- 1 cup Heavy whipping cream
Instructions
-
Keep chocolate chips ready in a mixing bowl.
-
Add heavy cream in a pan and simmer on the stove top. Keep stirring occasionally. Just as soon as you see a simmer (bubble), remove from heat and pour all over chocolate chips to make sure all chips are covered.
-
Cover the bowl with a lid to trap the heat and let it sit for 5 minutes. Do not mix.
-
Remove lid and whisk the chocolate chips starting from the center and working outward until smooth. It will turn into velvety ganache.
-
Once it’s velvety, let it sit uncovered at room temperature for about 10-15 minutes before pouring it over your cake. Leave the coated cake at room temperature for an hour before cutting it or refrigerating.
Recipe Notes
- Ganache was perfect for glazing the entire surface of the cake. It should coat a spoon nicely when ready for cake coverage.
- Only coat the cake when it completely cools down.
- Keep in mind that the longer ganache sits, the thicker it will be and more of a frosting it becomes. Then you can use it for cupcakes and cookies.
- Always use appropriate cake pan and the batter should only fill half the pan. I halved the recipe and baked a smaller cake.
