Mocha chocolate cake

Chocolate mocha cake with chocolate ganache 

Chocolate mocha cake is a soft, fluffy and moist cake that is packed with chocolate and coffee flavor. Coffee always accentuates the chocolaty flavor of a chocolate cake. It’s an amazing and tempting cake for coffee lovers. It is decorated with chocolate ganache that gives it a mirror like finishing. I have added coffee powder in chocolate ganache also as adding a lot of coffee will create a mocha flavor.

But keep in mind that more coffee powder will give a bitter taste. The chocolate mocha cake is super easy to make. It’s an eggless and oil based cake.
