Easy peasy spiced ginger cake with dark chocolate icing and walnuts

This is a simple recipe with a twist. I took an easy ginger cake recipe, added a teaspoon of cinnamon, ginger and all spice, then melted dark chocolate and milk chocolate together and added cocoa and icing sugar and butter to thicken the chocolate topping and decorated it with walnuts for that finishing touch. It takes about one hour to make, most of my recipes do as I don't want to spend much longer than that because I usually want to eat them soon after they're ready and I'm quite impatient with food!

It's a rich and a satisfying treat, perfectly delicious accompanied by a cup of coffee. Enjoy. See recipe details below, it's from group recipes:
