Notes
Whole wheat and wholemeal flour is the same thing. If you are not using whole wheat flour, then there should be a total of 2 cups of all purpose flour in this recipe.
The only purpose of the espresso powder is to enhance the taste of the chocolate. You will not be able to taste the coffee, and it is too little to keep you up like what cup of coffee does. If you don't have it or is uncomfortable adding, then please omit. Adapted from allrecipes.com
