Chef notes
A Fulvio family favorite, this is a dark, moist loaf cake that brings together some of the best of Wicklow: Wicklow Wolf stout, Brady's coffee, blackberries from the Ballyknocken hedgerows and a light, creamy frosting made with Wicklow Bán, a soft farmhouse cheese made here in the county. The stout and coffee deepen the chocolate flavor without being tasted on their own, and the tart blackberries cut through the richness.
Technique tip: The cake is even better the day after baking, so bake it a day ahead and frost it on the day of serving.
Special equipment: You will need a 2-pound loaf tin, approximately 9 by 5 inches, greased and lined with parchment.
