Ingredients:

2 1/2 oz semisweet chocolate**
1 tsp walnut oil
1 tbsp instant expresso powder
3/4 tsp baking powder
1/3 cup + 2 teas. sugar(granulated)
1/2 cup buttermilk
1 1/3 cup sifted all-purpose flour
2 tbsp +1/2 teas. cocoa powder***
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp baking soda
1 pinch salt
1 egg
1 tsp sugar(confectioner's)
Instructions:
1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Rub 1/2 teaspoon of the butter over the
sides and bottom of an 8-by 2-inch round cake pan.. Dust the pan with 1
teaspoon of the flour and set aside. 2. In a heatproof bowl set over a
saucepan of water, combine the remaining 1 tablespoon plus 2 teasponns
butter, the chocolate, 2 tablespoons of the cocoa powder, the walnut oil
and 1/4 cup of water over moderate heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until
the chocolate is melted. remove from the heat, stir in the vanilla and set
aside. 3. In a small bowl, sift the remaining 1 cup plus 5 tablespoons
flour with the espresso powder, baking soda, baking powder and salt. 4.
Using a hand-held electric mixer, beat the chocolate mixture at high speed
until lightened, about 2 minutes. Beat in the granulated sugar until
smooth and thick, about 4 minutes. Beat in the egg until incorporated,
about 1 minute. Using a wooden spoon, stir in the dry ingredients
alternately with the buttermilk until thoroughly mixed. 5. Scrape the
batter into the prepared pan. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until a tester
inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Let the cake cool in
the pan for 2 minutes. Run a knife around the edges of the pan and invert
the cake on a rack to cool completely. 6. Transfer the cake, bottom side
up, to a plate. Sift the confectioner's sugar on top, then sift the
remaining 1/2 teaspoon of cocoa over the confectioners' sugar.
* Use unsalted butter,softened.
** Coarsely chop the semisweet chocolate.

Spread Mocha Frosting (see recipe) evenly on the sides and the top of the
Devil's Food Cake, or halve the cake, spread the frosting on the bottom
layer and dust with confectioners' sugar and cocoa powder. This will add
65 calories to each serving.
