This cake is okay. I used six little fun size bars of milk chocolate, dark brown sugar and light sour cream. It is very mild in taste and somewhat moist. I think there are better recipes out there. I did ice mine with chocolate cool whip.

Simple, delicious and very moist cake!! Ran out of milk chocolate bars so used dark chocolate (85%) - cake came out not too sweet and could easily be served with a nice icing. Chose to leave it as is for a nice, not to sweet cake. Thanks Charlotte!
