New hand mixer and potentially the best chocolate cake EVER!

After receiving a new hand mixer for my birthday, I have been desperate to try it out, but I was looking for the perfect opportunity.  I stumbled across this scrummy looking Chocolate Cake recipe on BBC food whilst looking for inspiration, and I am so glad I did. 

I was dubious upon receiving my new Dualit hand mixer, as I felt it would be more hassle than it was worth. How wrong could I be? Firstly, I was impressed with its sleek design, and its vibrant red colour. Secondly, I love how easy the mixer is to use. The mixer comes with three attachments; flat beaters, dough hooks, and balloon whisk. The attachments are super easy to attach/detach, and are dishwasher friendly which is always a huge plus! Finally, the mixer is much lighter than expected, making mixing easy, and you almost feel lazy letting the mixer do all the hard work! 


Now moving onto the important part...the cake! Without sounding big headed, it is without a doubt the best Chocolate cake I have ever made, no exaggeration needed! Know this could be down to me, the hand mixer or the recipe, I'm thinking its the later two! The hand mixer sure made light work of making the cake. 




Feel free to try out this fabulous recipe :)
