Devil's Food Cake
Photo by Lis Parsons

This month’s Cookalong is Nigella’s recipe for Devil’s Food Cake, a creation that is perfect for Hallowe’en, or just as a treat on any day of the week! It is a rich and dark layer cake, with a luscious icing that sandwiches the middle and sides of the cake. Do read Nigella’s advice in the additional notes and make the icing first if it helps - the gooey frosting becomes a bit firmer after an hour or so, making it better for your decorating. And, lastly, do give your cake a Hallowe’en look if you like, it’s up to you though - leave your cake unadorned if tricking and treating isn’t your thing! Photograph your Devil’s Food Cake, add your caption, then send it to us, and you will then be in the running to win a signed book of Nigella’s. We will upload your entry, and will announce the winner after the end of the month.
