Rich chocolate cake recipe

 



Put the cocoa powder in a bowl and gradually whisk in the boiling water until smooth. Leave to cool.

Beat together the butter and sugar until they are creamy. Gradually beat in the eggs, a little at a time, adding a little of the flour to prevent curdling. Sift the remaining flour over the bowl with the baking powder. Use a large metal spoon to fold in the flour. Stir in the cocoa mixture.

Turn the mixture into the prepared tin. Bake in a preheated oven, 180`C (350`F), gas mark 4 for the time stated in the chart or until the crust is just firm. For a good moist texture the centre of the cake should have a very slight wobble when it comes out of the oven.

 

Leave to cool in the tin, then wrap and store for up to 3 days in a cool place of freeze.
