📝 Preparation Steps
1
Preheat oven to 180°C/350°F (160°C fan). Grease a 20cm/8" cake pan with butter then line with paper.
2
Whisk Dry ingredients in a large bowl.
3
Add Wet - Then add all the Wet ingredients EXCEPT the boiling water. Whisk until combined. Then add the boiling water and whisk until smooth. The batter will be pretty thin.
4
Bake ⏱️ 40 min - Pour into the pan. Bake for ⏱️ 40 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the centre comes out mostly clean - a faint smear of batter isn't a bad thing, we're making a fudge cake here!
5
Cool in the pan for ⏱️ 10 minutes. Invert onto a plate, then onto a cooling rack or plate right side up. Cool for a further ⏱️ 10 minutes - the cake will still be warm for serving.
6
Serving - Cut slices of the warm cake. Top with a scoop of ice cream. Douse with fudge sauce - just shy of 1/4 cup per slice (10 slices). Eat and swoon!
7
Chocolate fudge sauce (makes 2 cups):
8
Heat cream until hot, just before boiling point, using your method of choice - saucepan or microwave.
9
Stand ⏱️ 5 min - Put chocolate in bowl. Pour over hot cream. Ensure all chocolate is submerged, then cover with a plate. Leave for ⏱️ 5 minutes.
10
Mix - Using a whisk or rubber spatula, mix vigorously until the cream and chocolate combine into a silky chocolate sauce.
11
Cool to thicken for ⏱️ 20 minutes. Give it a stir then pour into a jug for serving!
