My lovely boyfriend offered to cook me a candlelit dinner last week after 3 hard days of interviews for Training Contracts with law firms in the city.
He cooked a delicious summer vegetable risotto with home-made cheesy garlic bread.
I was in charge of the pudding.
So, on my way back from the train station I popped into Tesco's and hey-presto I had the ingredients for a basic tiramisu!
Here's the recipe!

Mocha Cake
It's been a while since I last posted on here, but it's been very hectic with my boyfriend finally finishing his final exams and him coming to stay!
At the end of last month it was his 21st, but due to exams we couldn't celebrate on the day! However I promised I would bake him a cake nonetheless, and he requested coffee cake!
This is my recipe for a super-indulgent coffee and chocolate celebration cake! There are 4 main elements, the cake itself, a chocolate ganache which fills the cakes, a coffee frosting and then the chocolate top.
This is the finished product!
As you can imagine it hasn't lasted very long! There is one lonely piece left! I wonder who will be the lucky one to get it?
