Time 3h10m

Yield 9

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 teaspoon espresso powder
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
4 eggs, separated and at room temperature
1 3/4 cups powdered sugar
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 1/2 cups whole milk, at room temperature
Additional powdered sugar, if desired
Whipped cream and berries, if desired

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 325°F. Line 8-inch square pan with cooking parchment paper, and grease with butter or cooking spray.
  • In medium bowl, mix flour, cocoa powder, espresso powder and ground cinnamon with whisk. Set aside.
  • In large bowl, beat egg whites to stiff peaks. Set aside.
  • In another bowl, beat egg yolks and powdered sugar until pale and smooth. Add butter and vanilla; beat until combined. Add dry ingredients; beat until just combined. Mixture will be very thick.
  • With mixer on low speed, slowly add milk. Mix until smooth. With whisk, add egg whites in 3 additions, beating with whisk just until no large lumps remain. Mixture may appear slightly curdled. Pour into pan.
  • Bake 50 to 60 minutes or until cake appears dry on top and slightly jiggles when shaken. Cool completely, 2 to 3 hours; refrigerate until ready to serve. To serve, sprinkle with powdered sugar, and top with whipped cream and berries.
