Woke up this morning full of energy and inspiration.. I have 2 person to dedicate todays baking to. One is my dearest friend, Patricia who I'm going to see this Thursday and the other is the most efficient colleague i've ever known, Emily!

1. Preheat oven to 350F(180C) on fan assisted mode.
2. Sift together the sugar, flour, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda and salt into a large mixing bowl. Set aside.

4. Add this liquid gradually to the dry ingredients in the large mixing bowl while blending continuously with a large whisk.
5. Once the mixure is homogenous, gradually add the hot water, stirring with the whisk until well blended - the batter consistency will be quite thin!
