Loved this cake. It is so chocolatey, moist and delicious and simple to prepare. I skipped the nuts and mixed everything in a bowl rather than in the pan just to be sure everything was incorporated. The cake was done in 25 minutes and I set it out to cool until the kids got home from school. They both thought it was marvelous. There is a thread over in the Desserts Forum for weekday desserts that are simple and quick to prepare. I am going over there next to plug your recipe. Thx for sharing this Nora Marie, it is going in the favourites file.

These are so quick and easy to make. It makes a nice rich dessert that any chocoholic would love. I didn't add the nuts and my kids don't like them. This is a dessert I will make again. Made for ZWT4 Zingo.
