Chocolate Chip Cake Complete Information

The KFC Chocolate Chip Cake costs $5.49 and carries 1800 cal, which makes it by some distance the highest-calorie single item on the KFC menu. It is a whole cake rather than a slice, bought to take home rather than eaten at the counter, which is the context the calorie figure needs. Nobody is eating one of these alone in one sitting.

Split eight ways it is a reasonable dessert, and at $5.49 for the whole thing it undercuts most bakery cakes. It is the only item on the Sides menu designed to feed a table by itself. For one person after a meal the Chocolate Chunk Cookie is the sensible order, and the Pie Poppers sit between the two on both size and price.

KFC Chocolate Chip Cake Recipe

A tray bake rather than a layer cake, which is what KFC sells and also the easier thing to get right. The one real decision is keeping the chocolate chips suspended rather than letting them sink into a layer at the bottom.

Tips

  • Flour the chips. It takes ten seconds and it is the difference between chips throughout and a chocolate layer at the bottom.
  • A skewer with a crumb on it, not a clean one. Clean means overbaked in a cake this size.
  • Cool completely before glazing or cutting. A warm tray bake tears.

Variations

  • Add a chocolate ganache glaze for something closer to the shop version.
  • Swap a half cup of flour for cocoa powder for a double chocolate cake.
  • Bake in two round tins and fill for a layer cake instead.

Serve it with

  • Cut into eight, which is how the restaurant one is meant to go.
  • Warm slices with cream if it is a dessert rather than a snack.
  • A home tray bake costs a fraction of $5.49 and feeds the same table.

A home version of Chocolate Chip Cake. It is our own recipe, not KFC's, and the Original Recipe blend stays a trade secret.

Six to eight as a dessert. At $5.49 that works out well under a pound a head, which compares favourably with a bakery.

This cake, at 1800 cal, though it is the only item on the menu meant to be divided before eating. Among things one person orders for themselves, the buckets and family meals on the Family Meals menu lead.
