   Ingredients

   1. All purpose flour - ¾ cup
   2. Instant coffee powder – ½ tsp
   3. Boiling water - 2 tbsp
   4. Cocoa powder - 3 tbsp + extra for dusting the cake
   5. Salt – 2 pinch
   6. Egg – 3
   7. Powdered sugar - ¾ cup
   8. Vanilla essence - ¼ tsp

   How to Make It

   1. Preheat the oven to 180 degree. Grease and line a swiss roll tin (rectangle shaped pan) with parchment paper and keep it ready. Sift together all purpose flour, cocoa powder and salt. Keep it aside.
   2. In a deep bowl, beat together egg, powdered sugar and vanilla essence with an electric beater over high speed for about 8 - 10 minutes.
   3. Fold in the sifted all purpose flour mixture to this slowly. Add 2 tbsp boiling water mixed with coffee powder to it and slowly combine. Pour this batter to the lined swiss roll pan and spreads it evenly. Bake it for about 10 - 12 minutes or till done (check by inserting a tooth pick at the center of the cake, if it comes out clean, the cake is done).
   4. Place a damp towel over the work space, dust it with little cocoa powder. Move the baked cake upside down to the dusted towel. Peel the parchment, used while baking, from the cake and then roll the cake along with the dusted towel. Leave it to cool for about 20 minutes.
