This cake is what Jenny served to us when we first arrived for a visit and we gobbled it up (as hungry cyclists tend to do). It is really moist, a really good basic chocolate cake.

This cake was so moist. The preparation was very easy and the cake was cooked just right after 45minutes. This is a definate keeper. Thanks for another great recipe Jen T
