I watched Nigella Lawson’s Feast last night on ABC-TV. It was the episode featuring a gorgeous and quick mushroom pasta bake AND a decadently, divine and delightful Quadruple Chocolate Cake!
Just watching Nigella prepare and bake the cake filled me with inspiration and set my mouth to water. I wanted some!
I didn’t take notes during the show, and as I don’t yet have a copy of Feast, I went scouring the internet this morning for the recipe. I’d like to thank Not Quite Nigella for her her most wonderful site! As I type, the cake is in the oven baking. It smells gorgeous!
I opted to use natural, home made yogurt instead of sour cream (because it’s healthier) (like that really matters with this much chocolate??). But otherwise pretty much stuck to the recipe. Except I beat the mixture by hand, not having a food processor. I can’t quite justify buying a processor as I don’t do a lot of baking of cakes, and I’m happy to slice my vegetables with a knife.
I’m going to assume the cake turns out well … I’ll let you know later today.
