Instructions

Prep dry ingredients

1 Prep dry ingredients

  • Preheat the oven to 170°C (no fan).
  • In a large bowl, sift in the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda and a pinch of salt.
  • Add the sugar and whisk well until combined.
  • Set aside.
  • Boil the measured water and pour into a cup or jug with a spout.
  • Add the instant coffee and mix until dissolved.
Prep wet ingredients

2 Prep wet ingredients

  • In a separate bowl, add the butter and melt in the microwave.
  • Cool slightly, then whisk in the vegetable oil, sour cream, eggs and vanilla essence until creamy.
Combine batter

3 Combine batter

  • Add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients.
  • Whisk until mostly combined, then pour in the hot coffee and mix really well.
  • The batter will be smooth with a runny consistency.
Tip! The hot coffee won't impart much flavour, but will only enhance the rich chocolate in the cake, and dissolve the sugar.
Bake

4 Bake

  • Grease a medium-sized baking dish.
  • Pour the batter into the dish and bake in the centre rack of the oven for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean in the centre.
  • Cool the cake completely in the dish, or chill in the fridge for 30 min.
Make toppings

5 Make toppings

  • Meanwhile, add the cream to a measuring jug and gently heat in the microwave for 20-30 sec. Do not boil.
  • Add the nutella and whisk until smooth.
  • Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat with a drizzle of oil.
  • Crumble the konafah dough in your hands into smaller pieces. Fry for 8-10 min, stirring often, until its toasted and golden in colour.
  • Add the crispy konafah into a bowl with the pistachio cream and mix until well coated.
Serve

6 Serve

  • Once the cake has cooled, pour the ganache over the top.
  • Spread over the surface until completely covered.
  • Top with the pistachio konafah mix.
  • The Chocolate Crunch Cake is best served immediately.
Tip! Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 1-2 days.
