Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 10-inch bundt pan well with butter, shortening, or baking spray. Dust it lightly with a bit of flour mixed with a bit of baking cocoa.
Sift the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, salt, and instant coffee together in a medium bowl.
In a large bowl, mix the granulated sugar, milk, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract with a spoon. Stir in the melted butter.
Stir the flour mixture into the milk mixture. Pour the batter into the prepared pan.
Bake for 40-45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs. Cool in the pan for 15-20 minutes before inverting it onto a serving plate.
Warm the heavy cream in a microwave-safe bowl for 2 minutes. Add the semisweet chocolate and let the warm cream melt it for several minutes. Whisk the mixture in one direction until creamy and smooth.
Using a large spoon, drizzle the ganache over the fully cooled cake. Serve with any extra chocolate ganache.
