Egg-free chocolate cake with easy fudge icing – no eggs cake recipe

Dulce de leche chocolate cake
1 May
I am in love with dulce de leche! This golden, spreadable caramel sauce is made by slowly heating sweetened condensed milk over a long period. Once you have some in your possession you will want to add it to everything you bake – or it straight from the jar. Or both. Continue reading
