How to Make Mocha Chip Chiffon Cake Whipped Chocolate Cream

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C).
  2. Grease and flour two 8-inch round cake pans. Line the bottoms with parchment paper.
  3. Finely chop 6 ounces of semi-sweet chocolate into pieces approximately 1/4 inch in diameter. Set aside.
  4. In a large mixing bowl, sift together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 cup granulated sugar, 2 tablespoons instant coffee granules, 2 teaspoons baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  5. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients.
  6. Add 1/2 cup vegetable oil, 4 large egg yolks, 2 tablespoons Kahlúa (or coffee liqueur), 1/2 cup water, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract to the well. Do not mix yet.
  7. Using a large wire whisk, gently whisk until the wet ingredients are just combined with the dry ingredients. Do not overmix.
  8. Gently fold in the chopped chocolate.
  9. In a clean bowl of an electric mixer, beat 4 large egg whites with 1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar until soft peaks form.
  10. Gradually add the remaining 1 cup granulated sugar, beating on medium speed until combined.
  11. Increase speed to high and beat until stiff, glossy peaks form. Do not overbeat.
  12. Gently fold about 1/3 of the egg yolk mixture into the egg whites to lighten them.
  13. Then, gently fold the remaining egg white mixture into the remaining yolk batter. Be careful not to deflate the batter.
  14. Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans.
  15. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  16. Let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes before inverting them onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  17. For the whipped cream: In a chilled bowl, beat 2 cups heavy cream, 1/4 cup powdered sugar, and 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder with a wire whisk until stiff peaks form.
  18. Once the cakes are completely cool, frost with the whipped chocolate cream and enjoy!
