The rock cakes didn't turn out as moist as I expected. I think I overmixed the batter.

I'm not a big fan of cranberries, but I loved these rock cakes. The dark chocolate overpowered the tartness of the cranberries.

These rock cakes are a great way to use up leftover cranberries. I always have a bag of cranberries in my freezer, so I can make these rock cakes anytime.
