Mocha cake recipe – free easy mocha butter cake recipe






This mocha cake recipe yields a wonderfully soft and delicious chocolate and coffee flavoured cake. I have used coffee and cocoa in this cake to create the mocha flavour. The cake serves well with any chocolate or coffee icing and frosting.



Ingredients and cake tin sizes:

Round tin sizes 7 inches 9 inches 11 inches 13 inches
Square tin sizes 6 inches 8 inches 10 inches 12 inches
Butter 125g 250g 500g 1000g
Castor sugar 125g 250g 500g 1000g
Self raising flour 112g 225g 450g 900g
Salt a pinch a pinch a pinch a pinch
Cocoa powder 12.5g 25g 50g 100g
Baking powder 3/8 tsp 3/4 tsp 1 1/2 tsp 3 tsp
Eggs 3 5 10 20
Milk 4 tbsp 8 tbsp 16 tbsp 32 tbsp
Instant coffee granules 1 tbsp 2 tbsp 4 tbsp 8 tbsp



Method:

Preheat oven to 170 degrees Celsius.

Mix instant coffee granules with milk. Leave aside.

In a separate bowl, beat butter and castor sugar till soft and creamy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add salt.

In another separate bowl, sift flour, cocoa powder, baking powder and salt 3 times. Fold in the sifted ingredients into the creamed mixture alternately with coffee-milk mixture, starting and ending with flour. Combine well.

Pour the batter into a well greased and floured cake tin. Level the top and bake the cake for 35 to 40 minutes or until a skewer inserted in the centre of the cake comes out clean.

Remove cake from oven and let it cool completely before decorating it.
