One Pot Chocolate Cake
A community recipe by crèmebrûléeNot tested or verified by Nigella.com
Introduction
It's very shallow in volume, but that's not an issue after you taste it, as this is a very rich cake. I use ½ and ½ (half cream half milk) for the cake as well as the icing, but you could just as easily substitute milk or heavy cream, without any worry. Serve this shiny topped, modest cake to anyone who happens to be around, glass of milk alongside.
