For a birthday treat last month, I baked a yummy chocolate cake. It is my usual go to chocolate cake recipe which always makes a moist cake that keeps well (not that it has much chance to!). I decided to break with tradition and have a Cadbury's Flake on the top, rather than Chocolate Buttons. It was delicious and didn't last long!
I follow Rebecca at Railway Cottage on Youtube and she has been trying a WWII diet. She provided a recipe for Crumb Fudge which uses dry breadcrumbs mixed with margarine, cocoa powder, sugar and golden syrup. This mix was one Mum always used with Cornflakes to make us Cornflake cakes for parties. I think I may have had too many breadcrumbs as the base is a bit dry, not soft and squidgy as it should be. I had some left over chocolate so topped the 'fudge' with it. It is a recipe I will try again (great use for left over bread) but with fewer breadcrumbs this time!
