150g flour all purpose 

1 tsp baking powder

1/2 tsp baking soda

1/2 tsp salt

DIRECTIONS

1 cup boiling hot water or coffee (add 1 tbsp or strong coffee to the boiling hot water)

Butter and line a baking pan with baking paper or alternatively lightly flour the baking pan.

Preheat your oven to 150 degrees Celsius.

Place chocolate and butter in a heat proof bowl over a double boiler mixing frequently until chocolate and butter melt.

Transfer mixture into your mixing bowl.

Add eggs one at a time combining well after each egg.

Sift in cocoa powder, flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt and mix well.

Pour in hot coffee and mix until well combined.

Pour batter into your baking pan, you’ll notice that it is very light, that’s okay.

If your oven heats up fairly quickly you can start checking at the 35 minute mark.
