make a chocolate nut cake



Today's recipe is by Sue of PolarBearCreations, her shop of Waldorf-inspired dolls, and much more.

Chocolate Nut Cake



250 g sugar

200 g soft unsalted butter (just over 7 oz, or a little less than a cup)

250 g flour (just over 1 cup)

2 tsp baking powder

125 g finely grated (or melted) milk chocolate (baking chocolate) (this is about 1/2 cup)

125 g finely grated hazelnuts (or almonds)(about 1/2 cup)

1 small can of condensed milk (note: Sue has not tried it, but it might just work with yogurt, milk, or even buttermilk)

A bit of icing sugar

Instructions

Preheat oven to 370°F

Mix butter and sugar in large bowl until smooth.

Stir in eggs, one at the time.

Combine baking powder and flour. Sift into mixture. Mix well, then add chocolate and nuts, a bit at the time. Pour in the milk.

Cake batter should not be too moist.

Grease bundt pan (a tube pan works too)

Fill with chocolate mixture.



Bake at 350°F to 400°F for 40 to 55 minutes.

Let cool and remove from the pan.



Dust with icing sugar & enjoy!

What's in PolarBearCreations' shop? Beautiful Waldorf dolls and much more, including this mini baby, stuffed with wool.

Thanks for posting this recipe in two different units of measurement, Sue. I wish we were all metric, but until we are, it's helpful to have both.
