Now I am adding this recipe because I have been requested to do so, I am going to say that this cake is not really my cup of tea, I just do not get excited over a plain sponge with a chocolate ganache on top, but I understand that this…
Chocolate and Ale Cake
Thank god for chocolate cake! Chocolate cake ticks all the boxes that all good comfort food should and this one not only ticks the chocolate box, the cake box, it also ticks the booze box. It is so rich, dark and moist and served with the muscovado and malt cream would…
Chocolate Layer Cake
I wasn’t going to add this recipe, it is a great chocolate cake, but I do have so many cakes already on here. I did think it would be fine to just keep it in the magazine and fish it out when I needed it, but I have baked it…
Bitter Chocolate Meringue Tart
This ‘Mad Meringue Week’ has been a little harder than I had anticipated, there is only so many egg whites that a girl can whisk and only so much meringue you can eat, even if you do have a ridiculously sweet tooth like mine, but I do have to say that…

Chocolate Cake with Salted Caramel Sauce (Gluten Free)
Whilst browsing on Pinterest I found this gorgeous chocolate cake with salted caramel sauce, its rich, its indulgent, very grown up and gluten free. I love anything with salted caramel, so could not wait to have a reason to bake this dessert. I say dessert because even though it was referred…
Exploding Chocolate Gateau
I try to keep the recipes on my Blog either very simple or very traditional, this is because the purpose of the Blog is that my Children can access our family recipes where ever they are in the World, but sometimes I do derail a little and decide to add…
Simple Dark Chocolate Torte
I know I already have a very traditional http://dianastaveley.blogspot.co.uk/2010/06/torta-al-cioccolato.html chocolate torte on my blog, but this recipe is far simpler and a great one to quickly knock together and pop in the oven for a gorgeous evening dessert. I threw mine together whilst I finished cooking our dinner last night and…
