I have always used this chocolate cake recipe, it's a family favorite, the best ever, it has weight and substance... beautifully chocolately. -
I always baked this for my kids birthday cake - made houses hedgehogs etc out of the cake mix always went down well. Now make it for myself as a treat and memory to those days... love it. So easy but can look amazing with some special icing..

This cake has been a favorite of mine for many years now. I do three layers and sandwich together with kirsch cherry jam double cream and strawberries. It makes a delicious gateaux.
