The perfect thing for a mid-week rainy day treat.

Not so long ago a good friend of ours decided to adapt an old family recipe for chocolate cake to include our Back Roads Vanilla Porter. I’m not kidding when I say we barley had time to get a photo before it was all gone! Give it a try and make sure to post a photo before you let anyone know you baked cake, trust me this cake is going to disappear quickly!
