This white chocolate cake is divine and a must for all chocolate lovers. You'll need to be a little careful with the baking time as every oven is different. It's best not to leave it in too long as the cake should be as moist as possible. Not only is this cake wonderfully moist, but it can be whipped up in a flash.
