My husband is a big fan of single malt and high-end scotches. And he likes dark chocolate too. So, when Cask & Kettle approached me for a brand partnership, I had to say yes. The hard coffee that they offer are any baker’s dream really. So, I paired up with them to bring you an Chocolate Whiskey Cake. I used my basic Chocolate Cake recipe for this recipe and instead of adding plain regular coffee, I used the hard coffee from Cask & Kettle.

Preparing this cake is really easy and the combination of whiskey, coffee and chocolate is a delicious match indeed. The interplay of coffee, whiskey and chocolate is subtle but powerful, and results in a deeply flavored, moist Chocolate Whiskey Cake that comes together quickly. Cask & Kettle’s hard Coffee with the aroma of smoky whiskey mixed with chocolate and resulting in this Chocolate Whiskey Cake, is something you should whip up for this holiday season.

INGREDIENTS:

  • 1 and 3/4 cups APF Flour/ 200 grams of all purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 cups sugar/ 250 grams sugar
  • 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder/100 grams
  •  1 1/2 Tea Spoons baking powder/vinegar
  • 1/2 Tea spoons baking soda
  • 1 Tea spoon salt
  • 2 eggs – replace eggs with 1/2 cup yogurt or applesauce
  • 1 cup milk/240 grams

  • Beat milk and oil and sugar in another bowl for about 3 minutes

  • Pour the hot Irish coffee (the coffee shouldn’t be piping hot. Just hot enough). If you dont have Irish Whiskey Coffee, In 1 cup coffee add 1 tablespoon whiskey/rum

  • pour batter into prepared tins and bake for 30/35 minutes

NOTE –

  • If you don’t have a Keurig machine at home, you can dump the contents of the pod into a cup and add hot water to make the Irish Whiskey coffee
