Hi Sarah,
There's an earlier thread with lots of chocolate cake recipes that should help so I've added your thread to it to keep all the replies together.

Hi, i am making a large chocolate cake that i intend to bake in a traybake style as it is for a large crowd and easier to cut and transport.
I've made the usual basic mix with cocoa powder,a devils food one using vegetable oil, and a sort of quite heavy one almost brownie like.
Anyway looking for inspiration for a new recipe.
Do any of you have a favourite you would share with me?
If its in a cookery book let me know what one as i have many:D

Nigella's chocolate orange cake and Nigella's chocolate raspberry cake. The first one is from How to be a Domestic Goddess I think and the second from How to Eat. The orange one I could eat the whole thing. The raspberry one is strictly one slice at a time as it is very very rich, but lovely still slightly warm with creme fraiche.0

Hello!
I'm after making a chocolate cake for my friend's birthday, can't seem to find a recipe that looks like it would work! Just wondering if anybody had one or could point me in the direction of one, I would prefer to make it all in one, not 2 separate tins if that makes sense, they always seem to come out a bit wobbly as the bottom layer rises. I have a springform caketin so would prefer to make it in that. Thinking of something a bit more exciting than a sponge with cocoa powder in it!
Thanks for any ideasScar tissue that I wish you saw, sarcastic mister know it all, close your eyes and I'll kiss you cause with the birds I'll share this lonely view.0 -
