What a quick and simple cake to throw together!!<br/>I used my electric whisk..wouldn't do it again though,as the batter rose up the beaters and made a bit of a gooey mess. Easily remedied with a trusty spatula (plus the kids got extra utensils to lick-so no complaints there!!).<br/>This makes for a very moist cake,that keeps very nicely. A great 'go to' recipe when you need to produce something in a hurry.<br/>Made for PRMR.

This is EXACT recipe that my husbands Grandmother sent to us except this one calls for 6 Tbs. of Cocoa and hers was only 3. I'm making this tonight as a suprise for him and using the 6 that your recipe calls for, hehe. I'll let you know if he can tell..LOL.

Just like Grandma used to make! I cut the recipe in half, and subbed Splenda Brown Sugar Blend for the sugar (only use half of the amount of sugar called for, and cut baking time about 5 minutes) Very rich tasting snack cake, and doesn't need frosting. I served with a scoop of no sugar added vanilla ice cream. Made for Winter 2010 Comfort Cafe game.

Yum! I made 16 cupcakes and they turned out moist and chocolatey. I baked them at 350 for about 18 minutes.

I must say I'm proud to be the first one to rate this recipe.I made this recipe on 1/07/08,for "Comfort Food Photos".Since there are only SO and myself I didn't need a full recipe,so I just made half and it worked just great.Very moist and just the right amount of chocolate taste.I didn't want the usual chocolate frosting so I made recipe#111131 and it tasted great.I mean how can you go wrong with chocolate and peanut butter?;) Thanks for posting,and "Keep Smiling:)"
