During one of our Facebook chat, I promised my cousin to bake something for her. Since she likes chocolate stuff, I decided to try out this Chocolate Coffee Cake. The cake tasted rather dry after baking. However, when it's left overnight, it became moist. One bite of the cake, you can feel the rich chocolate with a hint of coffee on your palate. The overall taste was really nice. I was glad my cousin liked it.
Recipe for Chocolate Coffee Cake, adapted from "Lust for love of Chocolate".
(Makes a 8"x8" cake [original was 20-cm round cake])

120g Liv Unsalted butter
170g Caster sugar
3 Large eggs
200g Self-raising flour, sifted
Method:
- Grease and line the cake tin.
- In a small bowl, slowly add sifted cocoa powder to the coffee paste. Mix well. Leave aside.
- In another bowl, beat butter and sugar until light and pale.
