fudge cake

Dense chocolate treat

Fudge cake is a dense, intensely chocolatey cake made with fudge or with enough chocolate and butter to achieve a fudge-like richness.

It's heavier and moister than standard chocolate cake, often with a texture approaching brownie territory: The fudge cake was so rich I could only manage one slice.
