This Rocky Road Chocolate Cake is an indulgent, rich deeply satisfying cake that has a fudgy chocolate sponge topped with chocolate ganache and scattered with mini marshmallows and candied pecans - oh the very thought of it is making my mouth water.





Warning: This is not healthy, it is not low fat, it is not diet food, oh how I wish it was, it is very addictive and very fattening and I'm still going to make it - AND, if you put on weight after eating this don't blame me, although you could go out and exercise loads to work it all off and that would be the only healthy comment in this recipe. You have been warned!





I don't have to tell you what I'm making you can tell exactly what it is by reading the title, this cake is going to have chocolate in it, then another type of chocolate will be added - no such thing as too much chocolate right? Then surprise surprise chocolate is going to be drizzled all over the top of it - no doubt it will end up dripping down the sides of the cake too - do I care if it gets a little messy? Will you care if it gets a little messy? Who cares when it's chocolate! And then of course there are the gorgeous little white fluffy mounds of baby marshmallows that are going to to be sprinkled and drizzled with the chocolate ganache.





I may have to stop her trying to eat all those baby marshmallows before we cut the cake, then again it is her birthday and I love her to bits, so if that's what she wants to do then that's that's fine with me.





Ready - Steady - Cake!
