The first ever fudge cake that i had was my mum's and i absolutely fell for it! So so yummy that whenever she makes it, it wouldn't last longer than a couple of hours after being cut :D I've never made choc fudge cake myself because i know i'v got mum to do that. I used to think no one could ever beat my mum's fudge cake... Until i came across Sara Phillips's Chocolate fudge cake and had this strong urge to try it out! My mum's recipe had all the ingredients but strong espresso. Guess that was the secret ingredient behind this cake being uniquely fudgy even without the fudge icing.
