Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
  3. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
  4. Add the flour mixture alternately with the milk and brewed coffee, beginning and ending with the flour mixture. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan.
  5. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Remove from the oven and let cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  6. In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream until it begins to steam. Remove from heat and stir in the chocolate chips until melted and smooth.
  7. Place the cooled cake on a serving platter and pour the chocolate ganache over the top, allowing it to drip down the sides.
  8. Sprinkle with powdered sugar before serving.
