Love it when I have random ingredients on hand to make something delicious like this chocolate cake! I baked the cake in two cake pans and took over 30 minutes to set up. Very moist cake with subtle chocolate flavor.

This was delicious. Without realizing it I bought Mocha flavored cocoa and I was really upset to begin with but it added a really yummy coffee flavor to it.
