everybody loves these they are off the cadbury website there are heaps of chocolate recipes there
Call me crazy but I was determined to find my absolute favorite cake that I've been making before the internet existed online so the ingredients could be changed to metric. I found a cupcake recipe which is almost exactly like my cake. I just change the amount of cupcakes to 36 cupcakes so the amount of batter would be equal to a cake. I put mine in two cake pans. It really is the best. You can frost with Dunken Hines Fudge frosting.





The only thing you need to do with change the number of servings to 36 and change to metric.
