Chocolate. Cake. We’ll take either, any day, and if they are combined in one delectable recipe? We are in chocolate heaven. From layer cakes perfect for birthdays, to fancy-pants special occasion cakes, to cupcakes, sheet cakes, and a few surprises, we have the chocolate cake recipes you have been looking for. Even some gluten-free, ice cream cakes, and vegan, too!
Mocha Toffee Chocolate Cake
Coffee, chocolate and toffee all rolled into one cake that is perfect for birthdays and celebrations.
Our basic recipe for Easy Chocolate Cake, which is gluten-free, is brushed with Low FODMAP Coffee Liqueur, filled and frosted with Espresso Buttercream and the sides are covered with toffee bits and miniature chocolate chips. Get the Mocha Toffee Crunch Cake recipe.
Blackout Cake
We grew up in NYC in the 70s and “Blackout cake” was a favorite. This version is just as rich, but it is lactose-free and gluten-free. The filling and frosting is actually an easy-to-make pudding, and the exterior is covered with cake crumbs. No cake decorating experience necessary. Get the Blackout Cake recipe.
Chocolate Cheesecake
You can have cheesecake on special diets – and it can be lactose-free! We have several cheesecake recipes, from cakes to brownies.

Chocolate Peppermint Cake
The picture says it all. A chocolate cake made in a decorative pan with a chocolate glaze and a sprinkling of crushed candy canes! Perfect for winter holidays, but we also think chocolate and peppermint is a year-round flavor combo. Get the Chocolate Peppermint Cake recipe.
Black Forest Chocolate Cake
Black forest is the classic combo of chocolate and cherries. This version has chocolate cake and a chocolate whipped cream filling and frosting. Perfect celebration cake. Get the recipe for Black Forest Chocolate Cake.
Mocha Maple Chocolate Cake
Sometimes a simple cake is best. Our Mocha Maple Chocolate Cake is made with maple syrup and brewed coffee, hence the “mocha” flavor. While you could use this cake to make a frosted layer cake, we like a simple wedge with a scoop of ice cream. Get the recipe for Mocha Maple Chocolate Cake.
