Chocolate Maple Cake

The most indulgent chocolate maple cake recipe you will ever need! This is a fun twist on the classic flavor pairings of chocolate and maple syrup.

Now I don’t know about you but I absolutely love a chocolate cake but I can get a touch bored of the stock standard plain chocolate cake.

This particular chocolate cake doesn’t need to a icing as it has a maple drizzle but you could add one if you wanted but I would either not do the maple drizzle or I would reduce it the amount of maple syrup you use.

Chocolate Maple Cake stays so incredibly moist because it uses less flour than a standard chocolate cake recipe and uses the drizzle cake method for moister, that you typically see in a lemon drizzle cake recipe.

Tips for making the best Chocolate Maple Cake

  • Use proper maple syrup!

  • Make sure you add the amounts given below for the maple syrup drizzle, otherwise it could dry out.

  • You can swap the caster sugar for white sugar, however the cake texture is better with caster sugar.

Enjoy making this lovely cake!
