Chocolate Fudge Cake Recipe (Tana Ramsay)

September 29, 2011

As mentioned in my review of I Love to Bake by Tana Ramsay everyone needs a few reliable recipes up their sleeve for cake sales, fundraisers or parties and this recipe is just that. The added bonus is that the cake base can also be made quickly in a food processor.

Tana’s Chocolate Fudge Cake is one of the highlights of her Chocolate chapter, with a light chocolate sponge and a light filling and icing to match. As it’s not too chocolatey this one is perfect for kids and grown-ups alike.

***THIS GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED ***

To be in with a chance of winning your own copy of Tana’s book – tell me which of Tana’s chapters would entice you the most (leave your answer in the comments box below). The winner will be chosen by an online randomiser.

  • Cakes & Cupcakes
  • Biscuits & Traybakes
  • Puddings
  • Chocolate
  • Sweet Pies & Tarts
  • Savoury Pies & Tarts
  • Meat Bakes
  • Fish & Vegetable Bakes
  • Bread
  • Easter, Hallowe’en & Christmas

In the meantime, here’s Tana’s Chocolate Fudge Cake recipe to try for yourself – posted with permission of Octopus Publishing

    I’d turn straight to ‘Cakes and Cupcakes’ becuase not only are these a favourite with my family but as PTA chair, I find myself making a lot of cakes for sales and fetes and it would be great to have some new (impressive) ideas not that I’m competitive or anything…

    Chocolate
    Although it shouldn’t really – I eat far too much as it is. Then again, doing something different with it would be a skill I have never tried before apart form the usual melting and use of cocoa powder.

      I’m slightly afraid of “getting into pies” despite what my family like! It’s bad enough with cake!! There are some yummy recipes in there though – good luck.
