With all the candy and chocolate eating during Easter, I reckon a Ferrero Rocher Chocolate cake is a must. Especially since it’s a no fuss, very simple cake with delicious results. The cake has a chocolate hazelnut flavour which is probably a match made in heaven!

The Nutella frosting is so delightful that you could just keep eating it by the spoonful. It’s a rich cake so a small slice goes a long way.

Happy Easter to you and your families. Hope you enjoy the long weekend with amazing food and company.
