METHOD

Preheat oven to 160°C
Prepare two 9-inch cake pans (or 1 big black oven tray) by spraying with baking spray or buttering and lightly flouring.
Add flour, sugar, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda, salt and coffee granules to a large bowl. Whisk through to combine.
Add buttermilk, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla to flour mixture and mix together on medium speed until well combined.
Reduce speed and carefully add boiling water to the cake batter until well combined.
Divide cake batter evenly between the two prepared cake pans. Bake for 30-35 minutes (or 45 minutes if baking in a big black oven tray), until a toothpick or cake tester inserted in the center of the chocolate cake comes out clean.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool for about 10 minutes, remove from the pan and cool completely.Frost and decorate as desired. (I made it today - amazing without frosting 👌🏻)
