Quadruple Chocolate Loaf Cake

I only know one person who dislikes chocolate... and I can tell you, we are no longer in touch. In this cake there are cocoa powder, chocolate chips, chocolate syrup and shards of chocolate... who says there's anything wrong with excess?


I've baked this cake a couple of times now and it's so easy. Everything is done in a food processor. I do love this kind of baking. This cake is for my friends Deanna and Alison, both chocolate lovers for their birthdays.

The cake is so moist, due to the fact that it is drenched with chocolate syrup after baking. I used all dark chocolates here, my favourite, but obviously suit it to your liking.

Off to watch John Carpenter's The Thing now and I'm sure some baking is in order later (when I'm scared, I have a tendency to bake). Have a great weekend!

    Another Nigella recipe! When I read your first paragraph, it reminds me of a girl who just started in my research and she dislikes chocolate, a girl dislikes chocolate, that's rare...

    I recently had a triple chocolate pizza, and I had a hard time to lick the remaining of the chocolate out of the plate. Quadruple!!! I'm not sure if I can eat it, I'm definitely not a chocoholic, haha.
