Butterless! And delicious! Another chocolate cake that uses some cornflour, so I’m happy to conclude it’s necessity for proper chocolate cake. The recipe actually uses blackberries, which would be great if course, but raspberries should not overlooked.
Although I have say I’m not totally convinced that it should be included in the batter as opposed to added on the plate…it does create some pockets of wet texture in the cake that while very tasty, do give you a moment’s pause.
The final thing to note is that the chocolate topping, melted dark chocolate and golden syrup, us delicious, but I think softening it with cream to create something of a ganache would be better. It’s not really usable after it re-solidifies.
