Homemade Double Chocolate Loaf Cake
I know some people who don't like chocolate, and that's okay, but a double chocolate loaf cake? That's something everyone can enjoy.
We all have our likes and dislikes—like how I don't like lettuce and tomato on my burgers because they take up space that could be used for bacon or onion rings. But chocolate? I can't resist it.
Valentine's Day was generous to me, but now all my chocolate is gone. Did I really eat a pound and a half of See's Candies? What was I thinking?
They're just so good, and there's a store less than a mile from my house. Oh, great gods of chocolate, have mercy! With my stash gone, I needed to make something for myself.
After trying the Double Chocolate Loaf Cake from Starbucks, I knew I could recreate it—and even make it a bit better. This Double Chocolate Loaf Cake is loaded with chocolate chunks throughout the batter and topped with a rich chocolate ganache.
Plus, it's sprinkled with more chopped chocolate chunks on top for an extra indulgent treat.
This is a serious chocolate smack in the face. Will it be as popular as my recent Blood Orange Loaf Cake? Only time will tell, but both of them are knock-out.
I think you should make both of them separate days for sure or you might not get off the couch. Easter is just around the corner and that means even more chocolate.
Cadbury's Creme Eggs are appearing at every check-stand I end up standing at and man, I love those things. As a kid I'd bite the top off and use a spoon to scoop out the "yolk".
Seems like a lot of work, just make some loaf cake and be done already. Have a great weekend people, full of chocolate!
