rhubarbjam: A pink frog going through an existential crisis (Default)
I enjoy baking, but have never quite worked out the perfect cake-making strategy. Birthdays only come around once a year, and I'm rarely allowed to make my own birthday cake! Still, for this chocolate cake recipe I cobbled together three different 'recipes' and came out with an incredibly moist, rich chocolate cake. I took a recipe for a chocolate cake, a recipe for a whipped ganache, and an old tip I'd learnt - replace milk in your recipe with buttermilk. The acidity of the buttermilk helps your cake hang onto moisture instead of drying out.

Chocolate Birthday Cake Recipe:

Optional: put some raspberries over the top of the cake to add some tartness.
