Mudd Cake Recipe - Cooking Index
1 3/4 cups | 414ml | Brewed coffee |
1/4 cup | 59ml | Bourbon whiskey |
5 oz | 142g | Unsweetened chocolate |
1/2 lb | 227g / 8oz | Butter - cut into pieces |
2 cups | 396g / 13oz | Sugar |
2 cups | 125g / 4.4oz | All-purpose flour |
1 1/2 teaspoons | 7.5ml | Baking soda |
1/8 teaspoon | 0.6ml | Salt |
2 | Eggs - lightly beaten | |
1 teaspoon | 5ml | Vanilla extract |
Confectioners' sugar - for dusting |
Preheat the oven to 275 degrees. Grease and flour a 9- by 2-inch round cake pan.
Combine the coffee, bourbon, and chocolate in the top of a double boiler. Place over simmering water and stir until the chocolate melts. Whisk in the butter, a little at a time, until all of it is melted. Remove from the heat, transfer to a large bowl, and beat in the sugar.
Sift together the flour, soda, and salt into a bowl. Add the sifted ingredients to the coffee mixture. Beat well for about 1 minute. Add the eggs and vanilla and beat until the batter is smooth. Pour the batter into the pan.
Bake for 1 1/2 hours, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let the cake cool in the pan for 30 minutes, then turn out onto a rack. When ready to serve, dust the top of the cake with confectioners' sugar.
This recipe yields 10 servings.
