This is the chocolate layer cake recipe from 'The Primrose Bakery'. The exact recipe is twice the height of this cake as it is meant to be a layer cake but I halved the recipe just to make one layer. I was very glad I halved the recipe when I saw the size of this finished cake. The buttercream icing has melted chocolate in it which makes it quite yummy and not so sweet.
This is Chocolate cake candidate No. 2 for my friend's little girl birthday. I chose to decorate this with sugar yellow and purple stars but of course you can decorate it with anything you like. I saw a fabulous princess cake topper in Lakeland which would look great as well.
Will update on taste tomorrow!
Update - The cake has been well-received and the buttercream icing raved about. Interestingly, the Husband is the only person who thought last week's cake was better as the icing is not chocolaty enough! This cake has been rated 4.25 out of 5!
