So true, this may be the best chocolate cake EVER!

I wanted something sweet last night, and thought as long as I was making something, it should be a chocolate cake, since that’s my mom’s favorite, and I’m seeing her for lunch/dinner today, and I wanted it to be something I could share with her. I chose this recipe because I had all of the ingredients on hand, and it looked rich and chocolate-ty. This cake is amazing, and I may never use another recipe for chocolate cake again. It is rich, and so incredibly moist! And it was so easy to whip together. It definitely hit the spot w/me as it’s not too sweet because of the intense chocolate-ty-ness of the cocoa; and my mom is going to flip over it. Excellent recipe!

If you want chocolate cake, you have to make this one. It’s easy to put together, and incredibly moist and chocolaty. Really, really excellent cake.
