Ingredients
  

For the Cake:

  • 1 and 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup unsalted butter softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¾ cup buttermilk
  • 1 cup chopped Cadbury caramel eggs about 8-10 eggs

For the Chocolate Glaze:

  • ½ cup semisweet chocolate chips
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 2 tablespoons corn syrup
  • Cadbury caramel eggs for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x5-inch loaf pan and set aside.

Prepare the Cake Batter:

  • In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  • Beat in the eggs, one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract.
  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the buttermilk, and mix until just combined.
  • Fold in the chopped Cadbury caramel eggs until evenly distributed throughout the batter.

Bake the Cake:

  • Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread it out evenly with a spatula.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 50-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
  • Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.

Prepare the Chocolate Glaze:

  • In a small saucepan, melt the chocolate chips, butter, and corn syrup over low heat, stirring until smooth and glossy.
  • Remove from heat and let the glaze cool slightly.

Glaze and Garnish the Cake:

  • Once the cake has cooled, pour the chocolate glaze over the top, allowing it to drip down the sides.
  • Garnish with additional Cadbury caramel eggs, if desired, for an extra indulgent touch.

Notes

  • Make sure to chop the Cadbury caramel eggs into small pieces to ensure they distribute evenly throughout the cake.
  • You can substitute regular milk for buttermilk if needed, but buttermilk adds extra moisture and tenderness to the cake.
  • Store any leftover cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. You can also freeze the cake for longer storage and thaw it in the refrigerator before serving.
