Who doesn’t love chocolate cake? It has gotten me through some very tough kid induced mental/emotional breakdowns. I always say the richer & more chocolate the better. This cake is definitely a rich chocolate flavor. Perfect for hiding in the bathroom (while tiny fingers wiggle under the door) & drowning your sorrows. It might even give you the strength to make it through another day!
