Method

Preheat the oven to 180°C (top/bottom heat).

For the cake, melt the chocolate in a bain-marie (a bowl over a saucepan of simmering water). In the meantime, separate the eggs and beat the egg whites until stiff. Place the butter and sugar in a bowl and beat for around 5 minutes until much lighter and increased in volume. Gradually add the egg yolks and coffee. Finally, quickly stir in the melted chocolate.

Sieve the flour and stir in the hazelnuts, cocoa and Sweet Allrounder. Gradually fold into the chocolate mixture. Finally, fold in the beaten egg whites. Grease a cake tin and pour the batter in. Bake in the preheated oven for 50 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 60 minutes. Remove from the tin.

Chocolate glaze (optional): Place chocolate and coconut oil in a bowl and melt over a bain-marie. Pour the glaze over the cake and top with the nut brittle. Roughly tear the strawberries into chunks and sprinkle over the cake.

Chocolate loaf cake

This is no ordinary chocolate loaf cake. It contains a whopping 200 g of dark chocolate AND cocoa powder, alongside an entire cup of strong coffee and ground hazelnuts to really amp up the chocolate flavour. It’s only for real chocolate lovers! We’ve decorated ours with chocolate-covered strawberries and smashed nut brittle, but feel free to use whatever you have on hand. Let the kids go wild with the hundreds and thousands or chocolate drops! Don’t skip the Sweet Allrounder though – it adds notes of warming cinnamon and vanilla that complement the deep chocolate flavour.
