Chocolate Mud Cake Recipe – Our Family Favourite

Chocolate Mud Cake Recipe

This easy, three-step chocolate mud cake recipe is my very favourite. I’ve been making it for years. I’m not sure where the recipe originated from but there has been several tweaks over the years and now it’s perfect! It’s really rich and fudgy, more like an amazing chocolate brownie. (If you want the best chocolate brownies they are here!) It’s so easy to make as well, with only three steps. No creaming butter and sugar, then adding eggs and so on. It’s my go too when I need a quick cake. I just made it for my sister’s birthday and I’m about to make it for another friend.

Chocolate Chip Oat Slice Recipe

I made this chocolate chip oat slice recipe up just using ingredients from the cupboard this week because it’s a broke week! This slice is a bit muesli bar, a bit choc chip cookie, a bit ANZAC slice. The kids have loved it so far, so I’ll definitely make it again. It’s a great way to use up your oats and it just uses basics from your pantry. Nothing fancy needed. It will last in an airtight container in your pantry for at least a week (if the kids don’t eat it all first!) and is perfect for lunch boxes and after school snacks. It’s filling and full of oats, with not too much sugar, and school safe with not nuts. You can choose to use dark, milk or even white chocolate chips, depending of your preference. If you enjoy a salted flavour you can crack some extra salt over the top (that’s what I’ve done here because I love it!)

Last week I bought a box of mandarins from Watkins Family Farm as they are struggling to sell all their crops now that people can’t come and pick mandarins. They have worked out a delivery system so I got my hands on an entire box of them! I ate them and juiced them but I had some left over that were nearing the end of their life. So what sounds better than a mandarin cake?
