We’ve collaborated with Grounded Pleasures to bring you this delicious Chocolate Cinnamon Loaf! This deliciously decadent chocolate loaf is perfect for weekend baking. With all the beautiful flavours and aromas of Easter and Autumn, we love this served with a cup of tea or coffee.
Pre-heat oven to 160 degrees Celsius, and line a 22x10cm loaf tin with baking paper.
In a medium bowl whisk together the self raising flour, cinnamon drinking chocolate and ground cinnamon, then set aside.
In a separate bowl, use and an electric mixer to beat the butter, sugar and vanilla until light and fluffy.
Then beat in the eggs one at a time. Add the flour and the milk and slowly mix until combined.
Tip the mixture into the prepared tray and smooth the top.
Bake for 50 minutes, or until a skewer comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool on a wire rack.
To make the icing, combine the dry ingredients together, then add 1 tbsp boiling water. Mix and add more water a little at a time until you have a nice thick, smooth spreadable icing. Spread over the cake and decorate with edible flowers if desired. Enjoy!
