Egg less Devil's Food Cake
A Devil's Food Cake is an American classic.. Devil’s food
cake is supposed to be darker ,less sweet and generally more moist and airy
than other kinds of chocolate cake. The secret behind this moist, rich
chocolate cake is mixing the cocoa powder and no melted baking chocolate. Sometimes
there’s hot water, brewed coffee added. The lack of melted chocolate and the
addition of coffee is typically what distinguishes a Devil's food cake from a
chocolate cake
I made this cake for my Son's Birthday! This moist, fluffy
and rich chocolate cake is simply the most came out really good. It was soft
and super delicious .

Method:
1.Grease a cake pan. Preheat oven to 180C
2.In a saucepan, add water, milk and instant coffee granules.
Heat it until you see small bubbles forming on the rim of the mixture.
3.Remove
from the stove and allow it to cool down for 10 mins.
4.In a bowl, cream together butter and sugar until it becomes
creamy and is well combined.ThenAdd vanilla extract and mix.
5.In a separate bowl, lightly mix all the dry ingredients
(all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, cocoa powder and salt).
6.Once the coffee mixture cools down, Now add half of the dry
ingredients and half of the coffee mixture to the butter mixture and combine
well.
7.Once combined, add rest of the dry mixture and coffee
mixture and combine well.
8.Bake the cake for 20to 25 mins or until a toothpick inserted
comes out clean.
9.Once done, let the cake cool down in the pan for 10 mins and
then place them on a wire rack to cool completely.
For the Frosting:
1.Cut the chocolate
into chunks and add it to a bowl. Sprinkle instant coffee powder over it or the
brewed coffee.
2.Bring the cream to
a boil. Switch off as it starts to boil.
3.Pour cream all
over the chocolate and let it rest for 2-3 minutes
4.Whisk furiously to
form a smooth & glossy frosting. Let it cool completely.
5.When the chocolate is not runny and is little thick, it is
ready for frosting.
Assemble the cake:
I made single cake and Cut into 2 equal halves and set aside
Place one layer of the cake on a cake stand. Add some
ganache and spread it on the layer.
Put the other piece cake on top of the frosted cake.
Add some ganache on top of the cake and once done, frost the
sides.And it’s done.
Garnish with chocolate shaves and chocolate chips.
Just refrigerate the cake for an hour so that the ganache
sets.
Serve this mouth-watering cake !
