Tada!! Here’s an outlandishly cool Kit-kat pigs in mud cake — swimming in a tub of chocolate mud! Oh, my, what a great birthday cake! All that chocolate!!! I am breaking all ‘let’s eat healthy and lose weight’- rules and am posting the recipe for this delicious cake!
I guess, in the continued celebration of my Dutch heritage**, here is another Dutch bit of splendour! In putting this post together, I personally translated several different Dutch* recipes, and completed it with conversions of gram to oz, F to C, etc. Pfft. Am tired now. But, we now have a complete set of usable instructions on how to make this fantastic Pigs in Mud chocolate cake.
I broke it down into two different recipes.
The first recipe for the cake filling. It is a wonderful world-wide classic. My family has made this kind of cake filling for decades and it makes the perfect base for this Kit-kat & chocolate covered Pigs-in-Mud cake.
** Truth: This basic cake is actually not exclusively Dutch. The Italians love this cake and eat it all the time, but they call this type of cake ‘Pan di Spagna’ (Spanish bread). See how international this recipe is.
The second recipe teaches you how to transform this basic cake filling and make it into a fabulous birthday cake. It shows you how to make the chocolate cover and the fondant pigs.
Tip: please do not copy/paste these recipes and post them on your blog. It’s bad karma. Instead, refer to this page here. Thank you so much.
