Recipe for a rich chocolate fudge cake?
Can anyone give me a good recipe for a really decadent, moist, million calories chocolate fudge cake, with rich chocolate fudge icing?
I have looked all over the internet but can’t find anything special enough.
It can’t contain coffee and i would prefer if it didn’t taste too much like bitter dark chocolate.
Any recipes or tips would be v helpful.
Thanks!

125 g (4 oz) butter
225 g (8 oz) dark soft brown sugar
2 eggs
142 ml (¼ pint) soured cream
175 g (6 oz) plain flour
5 ml (1 tsp) baking powder
2.5 ml (½ tsp) bicarbonate of soda
50 g (2 oz) Cadbury Bournville cocoa
FOR THE FILLING
40 ml (2 Tbs) Cadbury Bournville cocoa

40 ml (2 Tbs) Cadbury Bournville cocoa
142 ml (¼ pint) double cream
Two 20 cm (8-inch), shallow cake tins, greased and base-lined
For the cake, cream together the butter and sugar until the mixture is light in colour anti texture. Gradually beat in the eggs, and then the soured cream (the mixture looks curdled at this stage). Sieve together the dry ingredients and fold them into the mixture. Divide the mixture equally between the tins. Bake at Gas Mark 5/190ºC:/375ºF for 30 – 35 minutes, until cooked. Turn out on to a wire tray to cool.
Make the filling by mixing the cocoa with 40 ml (2 Tbs) of boiling water to a smooth paste, allow to cool. Beat together the butter, sieved icing sugar and essence, until light and fluffy. Beat in the cocoa. Slice the cake in half and then sandwich the halves together with the filling.
For the frosting, melt the chocolate carefully. Make the cocoa into a paste with water as before and mix with the chocolate. Slowly whisk the cream into the chocolate until smooth and thickened. Spread the frosting evenly over the cake with a palette knife.

In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites till stiff but not dry. Fold them into the chocolate mixture. Spoon the batter into a greased 8-inch round cake pan, which you’ve lined with parchment paper. Bake the cake in a preheated 425 degrees F oven for 15 minutes (cake won’t look done in the center). Remove the cake from the oven, leaving it in the cake pan, and cool completely on a wire rack. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
Remove the cake from the pan, place it on a plate and serve topped with sweetened whipped cream.
