A fudge cake is a chocolate cake, which, despite its name, does not contain fudge. It instead seeks to mirror the taste of chocolate fudge.[1] It is commonly eaten at celebrations, parties, or gatherings.

Varieties

Variations include pudding fudge cake, made with chocolate cake mix, chocolate pudding, and chocolate chips. When made with additional chocolate, the recipe is sometimes known as "Death by Chocolate".[2]

"Fudge cake" is also a term in the American South to refer to a dense, single-layer chocolate cake served with or without icing. It is similar to a brownie, although more moist with more chocolate.[3]
