I love chocolate desserts. I’ve posted quite a few over the years including chocolate pudding, decadent chocolate mousse cake and more chocolate pudding not to mention all the different types of brownies.

So how excited was I when Donna Hay’s General Store delivered a gorgeous little package containing their latest addition to the cake mix baking range, the Flourless Chocolate Truffle Cake.

This, my friends, delivers a decadent, rich chocolate cake in just 15 minutes of preparation. Definitely faster than other chocolate truffle cakes I’ve made in the past. Plus it’s packaged up to make it so much easier, minimising the amount of measuring.

But this is no instant cake. Once the batter is made in a few easy steps, the cake cooks for 45 minutes and then needs 3 to 4 hours to set. But the simplicity and end result make it worth the wait.

So, does this taste like a packet cake? Absolutely no way! Is it as good as a ‘made from scratch truffle cake’, like this one? Maybe not, but it’s a very close second and for the ease of preparation it gets a big tick from me!

It’s available for around $8 from supermarkets throughout Australia.
