Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

Notes about this recipe

  • Pandan on September 05, 2024

    Made this as a birthday cake for my two year old son using decaffeinated coffee and less sugar in the dough. The frosting tasted really good, although definitely super sweet - so sweet that I couldn’t really taste the cake itself. I also had a few caramel clumps that didn’t dissolve. Maybe I heated up the caramel too high? Would have been good to have a temperature in the recipe. Also I didn’t read the part that said to add the cream in several additions, so it really did up bubble viciously and made a mess on my stovetop.

    Echoing all the other notes, this was a really, really good cake. However, I found the ganache too sweet for my tastes. Will definitly make the cake again but may use a different topping, perhaps the sour cream one from Alison Roman's 'Crispy Chocolate Cake With Hazelnut & Sour Cream'.

    This is one delicious cake. Cake is chocolaty,moist,light and not too sweet. Ganache was very good and we loved the peanut and cocoa nibs sprinkle. This was for son's birthday.

    Fabulous cake! Cake portion was moist and not too sweet and frosting was incredibly delicious!

    A half-size cake was gone in 2 days and there are only 3 of us - that's how good this was. The cake was light-textured, moist, and chocolatey, but the ganache really turned it into something fabulous. Like JJ2018, I ended up with tiny toffee bits in the otherwise silky frosting, but they blended in with the crunchy peanuts and cocoa nibs, so no one else noticed. I did wait several hours before whipping the ganache.

    Oh my goodness, this cake is delicious! AND easy: I simply followed the directions, and both the cake and the icing came together as indicated. My only quibble is that I can taste the baking soda in the cake itself, but I almost always can in recipes that involve a lot of rising agent. The salty, sweet, slightly bitter caramel ganache more than makes up for this.....

    Really nice cake. Husband, children and guests loved the topping though I found it a bit sweet for my tastes. It did take a long time to cool and my caramel crystallised slightly so icing had crunchy caramel pieces in it, which wasn’t a bad thing

    I agree with joneshayley- delicious, can’t stop eating it! I made half a recipe in an 8 inch square pan- next will try it with peanuts too. My frosting took several hours to cool in the refrigerator- it still dribbled from the whisk but after almost 4 hours the dribble held its shape. Took less than a minute to whip the frosting. Kept well in the refrigerator.

    Easy to assemble and delicious. The coffee isn’t strong at all. Moist and delicious though very very rich
