220 g soft butter
395 g sugar
2 xlarge eggs
125 ml buttermilk
250 ml coke
10 ml vanilla
500 ml cake flour
60 ml cocoa
5 ml bicarbonate of soda
5 ml salt
Turn oven onto 175ºC and grease and line an oven dish. I used 3 x 7 ” cake tin and the rest in another tin for the layer under the cupcake.
Beat sugar and butter till just mixed, add eggs and just mix into sugar, sift flour, salt and bi-carb together and add alternately with vanilla, coke and buttermilk (all mixed together) I just use a spautla till it all mixed together. Then turn the mixer on high and beat it all about 2 minutes till all nice and smooth. Pour into tin and bake for about 35 minutes turning half way. Use tester to see if cake is done. leave in pan to cool.
Chocolate fudge topping:
125 g dark chocolate, melted with 80 ml ideal milk.
Mix till smooth then add 200 ml sifted icing sugar and mix till no lumps. Put in freezer till it gets cold and thick, pour over the cake, helping it down the sides.
Put the cake into fridge to set and decorate as you want to 🙂
Enjoy just remember ….. creativity is at your finger tips and in your mind, no 2 cakes will come the same …… enjoy
