How I make it

  1. Preheat the oven to 340°F (170°C).

  2. Stir the coffee into the cup of boiling water and set aside.

  3. Sift the flour into a small bowl, add the baking soda and salt, and set aside.

  4. In a large bowl, whisk the eggs with the sugars until light and fluffy.

  5. Add the oil and stir.

  6. Add the flour mixture and stir.

  7. Carefully add the coffee and stir until smooth. Don't overmix, or the cake will be tough.

  8. Pour into two loaf pans.

  9. Bake for 30-35 minutes, until a toothpick or skewer inserted in the center comes out clean.

  10. Let the cake cool before slicing; it's very soft.

What I've learned

  • I use 4 tablespoons of instant coffee.
  • I whisk the eggs and sugar by hand, not with an electric mixer.
