Old-Fashioned Chocolate Cake

This morning my Delicious Magazine arrived and I couldn’t wait to have a good read and look through, so once I had done my work-out, and house chores I sat down with a cuppa and began flicking through. This month’s edition has a spectacular 20-page special on Chocolate, from cakes to decadent desserts. Nigella Lawson features some of her chocolate cakes and I came across her much loved Old-Fashioned Chocolate Cake which I’ve made many times. Subsequently I had some sour cream in the fridge that needed using ASAP and I thought this is the perfect excuse to bake up this wonderfully delicious cake again! This is the ultimate luscious cake and for those of you who have not had the pleasure of having this cake grace your lips and mouth, then all I can say is you’re missing out on something heavenly. I don’t normally make a big affair of a cake during the week, unless there is a special occasion but I couldn’t resist and I blame Delicious magazine for tempting me first thing on a Monday morning ;o) How dare they, eh? hehehe. I know a 15 yr old boy called Jake who is going to be chomping into this the minute he gets back from school.
