Do I have to use the coffee in chocolate cake recipes such as the one on Epicurious? Could I substitute chocolate milk or something in the place of coffee or will this affect my cake?
Ok, so I have never made coffee, since I don't drink it! How many scoops of coffee and how much water do I brew for each cup of coffee that a cake recipe calls for? TIA
Call me crazy, but if I'd never made it I wouldn't want to buy the stuff to do so just for this. After all, you may not even like the recipe.
What would I do? Go buy a cup or two of regular coffee at McDonalds.
Or find a recipe that doesn't call for coffee, there are other chocolate cake on epicurious that don't.
Or maybe...sub out the coffee for a chocolate flavored creamer. I have used a chocolate toffee flavor and it was super yummy
this is my favorite chocolate cake and i guarantee you won't taste the coffee. the coffee just enhances the chocolate. make the coffee as is says on the coffee package. i love this recipe!
You could buy a jar of instant coffee and make a cup that way. I was always hesitant to put coffee in my chocolate cake but once I did I totally agree with the other posts--it makes a difference. You will be hooked!
