It is definitely a cake for dark chocolate lovers, I used Lindt dark chocolate bars for mine, but generally you can use any brand that you like to eat. It also keeps well at room temperature. In fact it seems to improve for the first few days which makes it a fantastic do ahead dessert for when you’re hosting a big dinner or lunch. You could serve it with some berries and lightly sweetened whipped cream or creme fraiche. You could also always just eat it from a box standing over your kitchen island, because if you’re like me then there is a part of you that is convinced that if you eat a cake standing up the calories don’t count.
Shh people, this is not time for logic. If it was I wouldn’t have rushed to the store the moment I saw this recipe on pinterest! This was my first time trying a recipe by the legendary Donna Hays, but it definitely won’t be the last.
Hope you love this recipe as much as I do! Write to me and let me know what you think!
