Brown Stone Front Cake With Icing
There are two other recipes here but mine cooks the chocolate before adding, and this recipe has the frosting that goes with it. This is a lot of work but everyone that hears the name drools. From what I read it seems to be a Southern cake that the favorite Aunt always brought.
