Ingredients

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/3 cups sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon cardamom
3/4 teaspoon fine salt
2/3 cup unsweetened Dutch-process cocoa powder
1 teaspoon instant espresso powder
1/2 cup boiling water
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1 cup low-fat (2 percent) Greek-style yogurt
1/2 cup 1 percent low-fat milk
1/3 cup canola oil
1 large egg
1 large egg white
1/3 cup currants, soaked in hot water for 1 minute, drained
1/2 cup chopped semisweet or bittersweet chocolate
Confectioners' sugar for dusting

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Generously spray a 10-inch Bundt pan with cooking spray.
Combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cardamom, and salt in a medium bowl. Combine the cocoa and espresso powder in a small bowl. Pour the boiling water over the cocoa mixture, whisking until smooth. Stir in the vanilla.
Whisk together the yogurt, milk, oil, egg, and egg white in a large bowl; stir in the cocoa mixture until blended. Gradually add the flour mixture, stirring just until combined. Stir in the currants and chopped chocolate.
Pour the batter into the pan. Bake in the center of the oven until a cake tester inserted in the cake comes out clean, about 50 minutes. Cool on a baking rack for 10 minutes, then turn the cake out onto a baking rack to cool completely. Dust generously with confectioners' sugar just before serving.

Tips:

For a richer chocolate flavor, use dark chocolate with a cacao content of 70% or higher.
To make sure the cake is cooked through, insert a toothpick into the center. If it comes out clean, the cake is done.
Let the cake cool completely before frosting it. This will help the frosting to set properly.
For a smoother frosting, use a hand mixer or stand mixer to beat the butter and cream cheese until fluffy.
If you don't have a piping bag, you can use a ziplock bag with the corner snipped off to pipe the frosting onto the cake.

Conclusion:

This decadent chocolate cake is the perfect dessert for any occasion. It has a rich chocolate flavor and a creamy coffee mousse filling. It's sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.

Here are some additional tips for making this cake:

If you don't have any instant coffee, you can use brewed coffee instead. Just reduce the amount of milk by 1/4 cup.
You can also use a different type of coffee liqueur in this recipe, such as Kahlua or Tia Maria.
If you're looking for a gluten-free option, you can use gluten-free flour in this recipe.
This cake can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Remember to adjust the quantities according to the number of servings you need. This recipe is for a 9-inch cake, but you can easily double or triple it to make a larger cake.
