Hi all. Does anyone add cinnamon to their chocolate cakes? Not enough to taste, I was reading a thread a couple of days ago and someone suggested adding a pinch of cinnamon to chocolate cake batter? What does it do for the taste is it anything like what coffe does for chocolate; can you taste it? Thanks

Hi, I always add a pinch of cinn. to my chocolate cakes, I really think it gives it such a good taste and it smells amazing. You should try making it so you can taste it.

Thanks. Can you taste it (like cinnamon chocolate) or does it just add another level of deliciousness to chocolate. I need this cake for tomorrow; it's my first chocolate cake (just an 8") so if it has a cinnamon taste I won't experiment with this one. I know you can't go wrong with adding cinnamon to anything; I was just curious to the taste when added to chocolate.

I LOVE cinnamon in chocolate! I actually add at least a teaspoon, so that you can taste a hint of it. It just gives the chocolate flavor more depth in my opinion!
