Here’s the recipe:

  • salt
  • Oil/ Butter: 70 grams
  • Instant coffee powder: 1.5 tsp in half a cup of warm water
  • half a cup warm milk
  • eggs - 2
  • vanilla extract: 1 tsp

Method:


  • Sift in whole wheat flour, artificial Sugar(if using), Cocoa powder, Baking soda and salt all together in a big bowl and combine well.
  • In another bowl add egg (beat it well), coffee mix, milk, honey(if using), and vanilla extract.
  • Slowly add in wet ingredients to the bowl of dry ingredients.
