The Moistest Chocolate Cake You'll Ever Make

Grace4Gayle's Note:

This is no ordinary dry chocolate cake. It's so moist that it doesn't even need frosting and is even better and more moist the second day. Has a nice spongy texture but I can almost guarantee you won't have any leftovers. Plus it has no complicated ingredients and can be made all in one bowl. The recipe was passed down from my grandmother to my mom and was originally called Cheapcake because of it's lack of milk or eggs.

Yummy. Good enough to eat without frosting. But frosting is my friend, so I made some homemade chocolate buttercream and voila...perfection. I love how easy and quick this is. Even a young kid could help.

I made this for a Super Bowl party where several guests were lactose intolerant. The taste was great, although not quite as moist as I had hoped. Perhaps I over-baked it; I'll certainly make it again, decreasing oven time. Thanks!
