Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
250 grams butter
150 grams dark chocolate
2 cups coarse, granulated sugar
1 1/4 cups hot water
1 tablespoon dry, instant coffee
1 1/2 cups plain flour
1/4 cup self-raising flour
1/4 cup cocoa
2 eggs
5 drops vanilla essence

Grease a 23 cm cake tin quite lavishly.
Chop up the butter and chocolate and combine with the sugar, vanilla essence,
water and coffee in a double saucepan or heatproof bowl. Stir over hot water
until it has all melted.
Cool the mixture until it's lukewarm.
Transfer the mixture to a large bowl, stir in sifted flours and cocoa, and then
finally, the eggs.
Pour the mixture into the greased pan and bake in a moderately slow oven (I
find 150oC {degrees celcius} best) for about 1.25 to 1.5 hours.
Let the cake stand for 10 minutes before turning onto a tray.
This cake is great served either hot or cold.
