Last Friday I set a poll for my readers in SnS's Facebook page asking which cake recipe would all like me to bake.
And the winner was Coffee Chocolate Cake!
Today I baked the eggless version so that I can feed some tit bits to my baby who is less than a year old and yet to start non-vegetarian food.
I added an interesting ingredient which may or may not be available in all households and so can be totally avoided in the recipe.
Flavour wise you may feel a difference but it is okay.
My cousin gifted me a Hazelnut Flavour Coffee. As a beverage I never relished it because the hit of coffee is minimum and for a coffee lover like me I felt dissatisfied after drinking. But I loved the product and often thought about recipes in which I can incorporate it.
So this cake recipe was out of an experiment and it turned out excellent.
The cake itself is moist, almost fudgy kind of brownie and has a strong coffee and chocolate taste.
As always since I bake cake every month and love to eat most of it, I try to make a healthy version.
Bake and enjoy!
