Mocha Pudding Cake

Ingredients

270 gr granulated sugar
130 gr unsifted all-purpose flour
1 gr salt
45 gr unsweetened cocoa
5 gr baking powder
60 ml canola oil
1 low-fat milk
4 gr vanilla
10 gr espresso coffee powder
240 ml boiling water

Instructions

Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat it to 350'F. Coat the baking pan with cooking spray. In a large bowl, combine two third cup of the sugar, the flour, salt, quarter cup of the cocoa, baking powder and cinnamon, and stir well to blend. Whisk in the oil, milk and vanilla. The batter will be stiff. Scrape the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top. In a small bowl, stir together the remaining two third cup sugar and quarter cup cocoa. Sprinkle evenly over the cake batter. Dissolve the coffee powder in the boiling water and pour it over the batter. Do not stir. Bake for about 25-30 minutes, or until the top of the cake looks crisp and crackled, and a cake tester inserted in a "cakey" area comes out clean. Cool on a wire rack for about 5 minutes. Serve warm from this baking pan.
