\"Done<\/a>

Ridiculously Easy Black Forest Cake<\/p><\/div>\n

This recipe<\/span><\/span> which was included in the first edition of the Un-cookbook<\/a>, had been ignored for a few years until this recent Good Friday. We needed something quick and easy and luckily this time-tested recipe sprung to mind. Every so often, you have a need for an impressive dessert and yet have neither the time nor inclination to make much\u00a0 of an effort. Such was our case.<\/p>\n

There are only five ingredients: 1 double chocolate cake mix, 3 large eggs, 1 can of cherry pie filling for the cake,\u00a0\u00a0plus\u00a0 1 chocolate bar\u00a0with 1\/2 cup of sour cream for the icing. The first three ingredients are mixed together in\u00a0 a bowl and then cooked either in the microwave or the oven in a bundt pan. For the icing, you melt the chocolate bar and blend in the sour cream and apply it as a glaze to the cooled cake.<\/p>\n

In the interests of completeness, I must admit that the actual cake pictured was modified slightly. I did not have a full can of cherry pie filling, so I added unsweetened yogourt to make up the missing amount (about 1\/2 a can). For the icing, the only chocolate bar around was a Mars bar. So, that is what I used.<\/p>\n

For those who require it, you can download the original recipe as it appeared in our Un-Cookbook (download recipe as pdf file)<\/a><\/p>\n
