Ingredients
  

  • ¾ cup all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup white granulated sugar
  • ¾ cup cocoa powder unsweetened
  • 2 tbsp. espresso powder
  • ½ cup unsalted butter melted
  • 3 eggs
  • ½ cup milk
  • 1 tsp. baking powder
  • 1 tsp. vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp. salt

Instructions
 

  • Add all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, espresso powder, baking powder, salt, and sugar in a large mixing bowl and whisk until well combined.
  • Add the melted butter, milk, eggs, and vanilla extract in a separate bowl and whisk until combined well.
  • Mix dry and wet ingredients and whisk until the batter is smooth and consistent.
  • Grease a cake tin with butter and line it with parchment paper. Pour the cake batter into the tin and smooth it into an even layer.
  • Prepare the Instant Pot, pour 2 cups of water, and place the trivet on top.
  • Carefully place the cake tin onto the trivet, ensuring it is level and not touching the sides of the pot.
  • Secure the Instant Pot lid and cook the cake on high pressure for 30 minutes.
  • Once the cooking time is ready, allow the pressure to release naturally for a few minutes before manually releasing any remaining pressure.
  • Carefully remove the cake from the Instant Pot using oven mitts or a pair of tongs. Let the cake cool in the tin for at least 20 minutes.
  • When the cake has cooled, remove it from the tin and slice it into pieces. Serve and enjoy!
