A friend today suggested that I print a recipe for the Mallocakes we all know and love.<\/p>\n
Unfortch, I don’t actually have a recipe. \ud83d\ude42 Here’s what we do<\/em> know about Mallocakes from HARD BITTEN<\/a>:<\/p>\n But that didn’t make my fourth Mallocake–a processed and hydrogenated log of chocolate sponge cake filled with marshmallow cream so sugary it left your teeth gritty–and less delicious than the third had been.<\/p>\n Mallory had discovered Mallocakes one night at a convenience store in Bucktown. \u00a0There were only a few stores in Chicago that sold them, which made her burgeoning love for the things–sparked in part because of the similarities in their names–that much more inconvenient. \u00a0Mallocakes were made by a mom-and-pop bakery in Indiana that shipped them out only once a month, which made them harder to find . . .<\/p>\n They were ridiculously good.<\/p>\n The chocolate sponge cake was just the right balance of tangy chocolate and not-too-sweet cake, which matched up perfectly against a cream filling that reeked of sugar. \u00a0There were a few hundred calories in a single dose, and each box boasted half a dozen cellophane-wrapped cakes . . .<\/p><\/blockquote>\n I have imagined Mallocakes as a kind of chocolate Twinkie. So I suppose you could start with a Homemade Twinkies recipe<\/a> and adjust for chocolate, or start with a Homemade Ding-Dong recipe<\/a> and adjust for shape.<\/p>\n As soon as I have time to experiment (HA!), I’ll get into the kitchen and see what I can come up with. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" A friend today suggested that I print a recipe for the Mallocakes we all know and love.
