Preparation

Step 1

Place butter in a 3 litre (12 cup) microwave-safe dish; microwave on HIGH (100%) about 1 minute or until butter is melted. Stir in combined sifted flour, caster sugar and half the cocoa with all the milk; beat until smooth. Sift the remaining cocoa, brown sugar and the coffee powder evenly over the top, carefully pour boiling water over sugar mixture. Microwave, uncovered, on HIGH (100%) about 12 minutes or until just cooked in centre; stand 5 minutes before serving.
