Servings: 12

Ingredients:

• 3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons whole wheat pastry flour (see ingredient note)
• ½ cup granulated sugar
• ⅓ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• ¼ tsp salt
• 1/2 cup skimmed buttermilk (see Tip)
• ½ cup packed light brown sugar
• 1 large egg, lightly beaten
• 2 tablespoons rapeseed oil
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• ½ cup hot strong black coffee
• Confectioner’s sugar, for sprinkling

directions

• Step 1: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Coat a 9-inch round cake pan with cooking spray. Line the pan with a circle of waxed paper.
• Step 2: Whisk together flour, granulated sugar, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a large bowl. Add buttermilk, brown sugar, egg, oil and vanilla. Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed for 2 minutes. Add hot coffee and beat to combine. (The batter will be quite thin.) Pour the batter into the prepared pan.
• Step 3: Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes. Cool in pan on wire rack for 10 minutes; remove from skillet, peel off waxed paper and let cool completely. Sprinkle the top with icing sugar before slicing.
