265 g brown sugar
1 cup ground almonds
4 eggs

  • When cooked and cooled, cut into squares and dust with icing sugar. This is quite rich, so only cut small squares.
  • N.B This freezes beautifully.

Tips:

  • Ensure your oven is preheated to the correct temperature before baking the cake to achieve even cooking throughout.
  • Use good quality cocoa powder for a rich chocolatey flavor. Look for cocoa powder labeled "natural" or "unsweetened."
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in a tough, dense cake. Mix only until the ingredients are well combined.
  • Baking times may vary depending on the size and type of pan used. Keep an eye on the cake and test for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center. It's ready when the toothpick comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached.
  • Allow the cake to cool completely before frosting. This will help prevent the frosting from melting and sliding off the cake.

With its moist, fudgy texture and rich chocolate flavor, this mud cake is sure to be a hit with chocolate lovers. It's perfect for special occasions like birthdays, anniversaries, or simply as a sweet treat to enjoy with friends and family. The addition of boiling water to the batter creates a dense, moist crumb, while the melted butter and sugar contribute to a fudgy, gooey texture.
