Recipe Notes
- If you want to make this cake healthier, use whole wheat flour (atta) in place of all-purpose flour (maida). Use the exact amount of whole wheat flour. You might need to add 2-3 extra tablespoon of milk.
- You can skip adding coffee (if you want to). Although you won't get the taste of coffee in the final cake.
- If the cake batter is too thick, you can add 2-3 tablespoons milk.
- As this a dark chocolate cake, this cake is less sweet. If you want to make this cake sweeter, add 2-3 more tablespoons of sugar.
- You can also decorate this cake. Use this recipe as the base cake (Double this recipe to make 2 six inch cakes) and decorate the cake with chocolate ganache or whipped cream frosting.
