strawberry chocolate cake recipe

Tastebuds, prepare to be overwhelmed.

This appears to be the strawberry chocolate cake to rule all strawberry chocolate cakes. When this recipe popped up on one of our favourite food blogs, Matchbox Kitchen out of Los Angeles, we wanted to put our hand through the computer screen, take a slice and stuff it in our gob. As that's physiologically impossible, here's the recipe so that you can turn your cake dreams into a reality.

This concoction requires basically half of a strawberry field to make too, which makes us feel a little less guilty that we're consuming a Willy-Wonka-sized amount of chocolate.

And if this recipe takes your bakery fancy, have a peep at Hilary Thackway's 'burger cake' recipe that we featured last week.
