Method

Step 1

Preheat oven to 180°C (Conventional bake). Grease and line the base of a 23cm cake tin.

Step 2

Dissolve Gregg's Red Ribbon Roast Instant Coffee Powder in hot water and set aside to cool.

Step 3

Sift flour, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda, Gregg's Ground Ginger and Gregg's Ground Mixed Spice into a mixing bowl. Stir in sugar.

Step 4

Beat together sour cream, eggs, oil and cooled coffee. Pour into the dry ingredients. Beat for 2 minutes, or until mixture is smooth. Pour into prepared tin. The mixture will be runny.

Step 5

Bake for 1 - 1 ¼ hours. Leave in the tin to cool for 10 minutes before turning out onto a baking rack to cool completely. Once cold prepare the chocolate ganache and pour over the cake - swirling with a knife to decorate.
