Method

Preheat oven to 180°C bake. Grease and line a 23-25cm round cake tin (or 2 x 20cm tins).

In a large bowl, combine Chelsea White Sugar, flour, cocoa, baking soda, baking powder and salt. Make a well in the centre and pour in the eggs, coffee, milk, oil and vinegar.

Mix until smooth; the batter will be thin.

Pour into prepared tin and bake for 35-40 minutes (two layers) or 60-75 minutes (single layer). Baking time will depend on the size cake tin used. When cooked, the cake should bounce bake when gently pressed on top, and a skewer inserted into the centre of the cake should come out clean (or with just a few fudgy crumbs attached).

Icing: Gently melt chocolate with butter (either on low heat in the microwave or using a double boiler). Remove from heat. Add cream cheese and Chelsea Icing Sugar.  Beat until smooth. Spread over cooled cake. You may wish to double the icing if you have two layers to sandwich together.
