directions

  • Combine sugar, flour, cocoa, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
  • Mix well.
  • Add espresso, milk, lemon juice, eggs, olive oil, and extract to dry ingredients.
  • Mix well.
  • Pour into a greased bundt pan.
  • Mixture will be EXTREMELY THIN.
  • Don't worry!
  • Bake at 350*F for 35-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted near the middle comes out clean.
  • Let cool for 10 minutes before removing from pan.
  • After the cake cools completely dust with a tablespoon or two of powdered sugar, if desired.
  • You can also frost the cake with your favorite frosting, but it is very good without frosting.

Reviews

  1. Loved it! Almost as easy as a mix, but so much tastier and healthier! I substituted 1/2 c of sucanat for sugar, and was impressed that the olive oil was "hidden" enough. I only had one problem; getting it out of my bundt pan, but that was probably because I let it cool too long. Next time I think I'll try it with a 9x13.
