We are lucky to be able to share Skye McAlpine’s chocolate and chestnut cake recipe from her new cookbook A Table For Friends: the Art of Cooking for Two or Twenty (around £26, Bloomsbury). Skye says: “Chocolate cake is often dry and, in spite of its dark, sumptuous appearance, rather disappointing to eat. This, however, chic-ly dusted in a cloud of icing sugar, is the ideal balance of velvety chestnut and rich, fudgey chocolate.”
