Mocha chocolate cake

Chocolate mocha cake with chocolate ganache

Chocolate mocha cake is a soft, fluffy and moist cake that is packed with chocolate and coffee flavor. Coffee always accentuates the chocolaty flavor of a chocolate cake. It’s an amazing and tempting cake for coffee lovers. It is decorated with chocolate ganache that gives it a mirror like finishing. I have added coffee powder in chocolate ganache also as adding a lot of coffee will create a mocha flavor.

To make this mocha cake, use instant coffee powder as it completely dissolves. You can add more coffee powder, if you want to make it quite strong to match the flavor. But keep in mind that more coffee powder will give a bitter taste. The chocolate mocha cake is super easy to make. It’s an eggless and oil based cake.

This chocolate mocha cake is insanely delicious. I have decorated it with buttercream frosting that gives an amazing look. It’s every bite is so heavenly.
