This readers'recipe appeared in Epicure in 2011 and was voted one of the best by writer Richard Cornish."Patricia Murray's adaptation of a recipe published in Epicure in the 1990s was for a heavy cake. On our tasters'request we upped the chocolate to create a moist cake made lighter by gently folding in fluffy egg whites. It is best made the day before eating and good served with cream,berries and a dusting of icing sugar. It is even better,according to Mrs Murray,with a handful of dried sour cherries added to the batter before pouring into the cake tin."
