Fantastic!! This is such a rich and delicious cake. I used cocoa powder instead of flour for dusting the pan -- a little bit of extra chocolate can't be bad, right?! :) Definite keeper. Thanks for sharing!

OMG this is so rich and decadent!!! Made as is except instead of using a greased/floured pan I used recipe#78579 (choco version). DH is a HUGE chocolate fan and was in heaven eating this. Make sure to serve small pieces with lots of milk!! Will be making this again for sure!! Made for PAC Spring 2010.
