Notes
- Recipe Notes:
- * For best results I recommend weighing all ingredients instead of using measuring cups/spoons. This will guarantee that your cake turns out just like mine.
- **Honestly, I think this cake looks great with sprinkles, but unfortunately, it's really hard to find chocolate sprinkles that actually taste good. Most of them don't have that real chocolate flavor... and what's even worse, some just taste downright terrible. My suggestion? Skip anything that tastes awful in your cake – it'll just bring down the whole delicious vibe.
- The better move? Grate some real chocolate and grate it, or sprinkle some cocoa powder on top. You can also keep it simple and skip the sprinkles altogether. But, if you're feeling adventurous, go on a little quest to find chocolate sprinkles that are made of the real deal chocolate. If you discover any hidden gems, definitely give me the heads-up!
- Today, I used this brand, and I think it's miles better than what I usually find at my local grocery store. Let me know if you find a chocolate sprinkle jackpot!
