Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 11×7-inch (28×19 cm) baking pan with butter and dust it with flour.

  2. In a bowl, whisk the eggs with the salt, vanilla and sugar until foamy.

  3. Add the oil and milk and stir briefly.

  4. Sift the flour, cocoa powder and baking powder into the liquid mixture. Stir until you have a smooth batter with no lumps.

  5. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes. A toothpick inserted in the center should come out dry. Let the cake cool completely.

  6. In a mug, stir the milk with the cappuccino powder. Poke holes all over the cake with a toothpick or skewer and pour the coffee milk evenly over it.

  7. Whip the cold cream to soft peaks, add the Nutella and whip to a firm cream. Spread it over the cake and refrigerate.

  8. Pour hot (not boiling) cream over the chopped chocolate and stir until you have a glossy ganache.

  9. Pour the ganache over the cake and refrigerate for at least 1 hour until set.

Tips:
  • Slice with a hot, dry knife so the ganache does not crack. Chill the heavy cream well before whipping.
  • Variations: use cocoa drink mix instead of cappuccino powder for the soak, or add banana slices or raspberries under the Nutella cream.
