Quick Mix Chocolate Cake with Fudge Frosting
Converted from AWW :)
The recipe recommends all ingredients be at room temperature, but mine weren't :-))
Ingredients:
185g butter
185g caster sugar (I used 110g brown sugar)
3 eggs
150g SR flour
75g plain flour
30g cocoa
125ml milk
Method:
1. Preheat oven to 180 degrees. Grease and line a 16cm x 26cm lamington tin (I used a 20cm round cake tin).
2. Put all ingredients in TMX and mix for 1 minute/speed 4. Scrape sides of bowl and mix for a further 30 seconds/speed 4 or until smooth.
3. Pour into prepared tin and bake for 30 minutes (mine took about 40). Cool for 5 minutes in tin before turning out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
Fudge Frosting:
60g dark cooking chocolate
15g butter
225g icing sugar
2 tbsp milk, approximately
Melt chocolate and butter for 1 minute/60 degrees or until smooth. Add icing sugar, set TMX to speed 2 and add dashes of milk through lid until frosting is smooth and spreadable. Spread over cake and decorate as desired :)

Can't have enough recipes for Chocolate Cake Amy ;D
Lovely cake BTW :-*

Great looking cake Amy
-
Thanks ladies ;D :-*
Judy, this one is for some friends who have been in the UK for nearly 5 weeks.... they get home tomorrow so I just dropped the cake off at their house. They will find it on the kitchen bench as soon as they get in :D
Good idea making a welcome home cake for DB though, I should do that when he comes down in a few weeks ;)
I think he likes his meals at home... he eats the same thing every day up at university so it must be a shock for his tastebuds when he has proper homecooked meals and something different every night :-))

A lovely gesture for your friends Amy. They will be pleased I'm sure.
DB may wonder what's come over you if you decorate a cake like that for him :D but it would be worth his reaction for you to give it a go.
