-yes, it was in taste magazine and has become a family favourite.Asked for regularly.Its great as can keep chorizo in fridge for weeks and then all you need is a bit of chicken and you're away!Makes quite a big amount- probably enough for 5-6 adults.

New method for Dana's chocolate cake - no food mix 2 Years ago Heat oven tp 180 degrees C.
Beat together
100 g melted butter, 2 eggs, 1 1/2 cups sugar, 1 teaspoon vanilla, 1 teaspoon salt and 1 1/2 cups milk.
Sift together 1 1/3 cups flour, 1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda - NOT BAKING POWDER. and 2/3 cups cocoa.
Mix these dry ingredients into wet mixture. It is possible to do all this using a hand beater or just a spoon as the batter is quite thin. The cake will rise a lot.
Bake 40 - 50 minutes.
FILLING/ICING
Mix 100 g soft butter, 250g icing sugar, 1/3 cup icing sugar until combinded. Add 1/3 cup cream and enough milk to make a thick, soft spreadable icing.
Slice cake horizontally. Fill with icing or jam. Ice whole cake with remaining icing.

Icing.should the 1/3 cup icing sugar actually be cocoa!

yup i've just checked the recipe and it's 1/3 c cocoa ,,i think the flour measure might be incorrect, it says 1 1/2 cups on here but in sophie's book it states 1 2/3cups of flour . Just thought you'd want to know.

Dana's Chocolate Cake/cupcakes
You know this recipe already, but you might not know that it makes great cupcakes It cuts neatly and freezes well too.
Preheat oven to 180°C
1 2/3 cups flour 1½ cups sugar 2/3 cup cocoa powder 1 ½ tsp baking soda – yes baking soda! (see cooks tips) 1 tsp salt 1½ cups of trim milk 100 g melted butter 2 eggs 1 tsp vanilla
Pour into the prepared patty cake cases and bake until firm and springy, this will depend on the size of the cases but probably at least 20 minutes.
Classic Chocolate Frosting 250 g icing sugar 100 g butter 1/3 cup cocoa 1 tsp vanilla milk to mix
Place butter and dry ingredients in processor, pulse to combine then add a dash of milk and pulse again, continue until you achieve a soft spreadable icing then add vanilla.
