There are so many good chocolate cakes out there that it gets hard to compete with the yummy bakery’s chocolate cake. But is it really better than a homemade chocolate cake ?We don’t think so. Just thinking about the good smell running in your kitchen .. Mmm ..
The recipe I am about to share with you is not only delicious, but most important, very easy. I made it last week when I had invites over, and the first thing they asked me after taking the first bite was ‘can I have the recipe?’. As a cook, this is the best compliment you can ever get.
Now let’s have a look at how to make it this delicious moist chocolate cake.
