Chocolate Syrup Cake- An easy chocolate cake that only needs a handful of simple ingredients and tastes dee-licious!
Quick story...my mother-in-law made this cake all the time and my husband loved it quite a bit. My lovely husband and I were married in 1999. My mother in law gave this recipe to me in 2001.
I took the recipe and filed it away. Then, kids, life and all sorts of stuff happened. As it does. Fast forward to 2011 and I find it in my recipe files, so, I decided to bake it. Now, mind you, I didn't bake it for my husband or my family. I baked it because, I just started food blogging and was looking for inspiration. Oops. So...am I a bad daughter-in-law or wife? 🤔
I say neither! Because, I now make it a bit more regularly and everybody around here loves it. It's simple, chocolatey and really delicious.

Can I Use Any Brand Chocolate Syrup?
Yes. You will need a 24 ounce bottle. You could also make it homemade, use dark chocolate, sugar free or a plant based version. Whichever you prefer. Just keep in mind, a different variety may also be different when it comes to the size of the package.
What Kind of Frosting Should I Use?
Well, that is up to you too. You can go with your favorite homemade chocolate buttercream frosting or heck, your favorite store bought brand/variety. If you wish to opt out of a thick frosting, a dusting of powdered sugar works great on this cake too.
