Swedish Chocolate Mud Cake “Kladdkaka”

I spent the last 2 weeks in Sweden with my family. There we tried many new & interesting local specialties, including a sticky chocolate cake called “Kladdkaka”.

We liked the cake so much that I had to bake it at home. The preparation is super easy, the ingredients are quickly mixed together & then the cake can be baked in the oven for 10 minutes. Have fun baking!
