I have been searching for a great chocolate cake recipe for
years. I have found it. My search has ended. I now have THE recipe. If you
have ever seen the movie Matilda you will surely remember the scene where the
boy is forced to eat the most delicious looking chocolate cake ever. I feel
just like that boy when I eat this cake. It is my Matilda chocolate cake for
sure.
This cake is moist and has the perfect crumb. I cannot
imagine making a chocolate cake using any other recipe. It is so easy to make
and puts doctored cake mix recipes to shame. I’m eating a piece of the cake as
I’m writing this, drooling all over my keyboard. It is insanely delicious. A
decades search was worth the wait. Every…decadent…bite. Who wants cake?
