Sofia's Chocolate Cake
A community recipe by SOFIAUK25Not tested or verified by Nigella.com
Introduction
This chocolate cake recipe my mum had from a news paper cutting from when I was little, the date on the paper was before I was born 1974, its the best chocolate cake recipe and I bake all the time. I have adjusted it slightly over the years. The result is much better the day after making it, wrap in foil. Try it!! I usually make a ganache to put on top, and it is very moist and chocolately!!
