Time 5h30m

Number Of Ingredients 18

175 g dark chocolate
175 g unsalted butter
2 tsps instant coffee
100 ml boiling water
135 g plain flour
25 g cocoa powder
1 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp bicarbonate of soda
300 g light brown sugar ((or caster sugar))
3 medium eggs
75 ml buttermilk
125 g unsalted butter ((room temp - not stork/spread))
250 g icing sugar
25 g cocoa powder
1/2 tsp vanilla ((optional))
50-75 ml evaporated milk
Sprinkles
Chocolates

Steps:

  • Preheat your oven to 180C/160C Fan, and line a 2lb loaf tin!
  • In a microwave proof bowl, add the chocolate and butter and heat and mix until melted. I usually do 30 second bursts!
  • Add the coffee granules to a mug, and pour over the boiling water and mix until smooth - add the coffee mix into the chocolate/butter and mix until smooth.
  • In a separate bowl, add the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, bicarbonate of soda and sugar to a large bowl and whisk until distributed.
  • In another bowl, mix together the buttermilk and eggs.
  • Add the three mixes together - I pour the chocolate/coffee mix and the egg/buttermilk mix into the dry ingredients and fold until smooth. You do not need to use a stand mixer as you may over-mix it.
  • Pour the mixture into the lined 2lb loaf tin - bake in the oven for 55-60 minutes, or until baked through!
  • Leave to cool fully once baked!
  • Make sure your butter is at room temperature!
  • Beat the butter on it's own for a few minutes to soften!
  • Add in the icing sugar and cocoa powder 1/2 at a time, and beat until combined.
  • Add the vanilla, and then the evaporated milk a little at a time beating fully in-between each go!
  • Slather the frosting onto the top of the loaf cake, and then decorate how you want - chocolates and more!
  • Sprinkle on your favourite sprinkles and enjoy!

Time 40m

Yield 2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 1/2 cups sugar (I use Splenda Blend)
1/4 cup cocoa
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup butter
1/2 cup evaporated milk (or use half-and-half )
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • In a heavy medium saucepan, combine the sugar, cocoa, and salt, and stir or whisk to mix everything well.
  • Add the butter and place over medium heat, stirring to melt the butter and mix everything together into a smooth, brown sauce.
  • Add the milk, stir well, and bring the frosting to a boil, stirring often and adjust the heat to maintain an active but gentle boil, and cook for 5 minutes, stirring often.
  • When the frosting begins to thicken, remove it from the heat and stir in the vanilla and set it aside to cool for about 20 minutes.
  • Beat the frosting just until it thickens and looks shiny, and then spread it over the cake or the layers you want to ice.
