For the Cake

Preheat your oven to 180C/160C Fan, and line a 2lb loaf tin!

In a microwave proof bowl, add the chocolate and butter and heat and mix until melted. I usually do 30 second bursts!

Add the coffee granules to a mug, and pour over the boiling water and mix until smooth - add the coffee mix into the chocolate/butter and mix until smooth.

In a separate bowl, add the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, bicarbonate of soda and sugar to a large bowl and whisk until distributed.

In another bowl, mix together the buttermilk and eggs.

Add the three mixes together - I pour the chocolate/coffee mix and the egg/buttermilk mix into the dry ingredients and fold until smooth. You do not need to use a stand mixer as you may over-mix it.

Pour the mixture into the lined 2lb loaf tin - bake in the oven for 55-60 minutes, or until baked through!

Leave to cool fully once baked!

For the Frosting

Make sure your butter is at room temperature!

Beat the butter on it's own for a few minutes to soften!

Add in the icing sugar and cocoa powder 1/2 at a time, and beat until combined.

Add the vanilla, and then the evaporated milk a little at a time beating fully in-between each go!

Decoration!

Slather the frosting onto the top of the loaf cake, and then decorate how you want - chocolates and more!

Sprinkle on your favourite sprinkles and enjoy!
