Hi,
I baked a chocolate cake in honor of my 2 BFF's and my dog's birthdays. if you like chocolate this cake is for you, it is a chocolate cake and chocolate frosting. "Perfectly Chocolate" as the recipe says.
I probably ate more frosting than I put on the cake, but oh well who cares :) Sadly my BFF's live in another state and my dog can't have chocolate,so they can not have the cake but at least they know I baked it in there honor :) so you are probably bored too death with my chit chat and want to get on too the recipe, I will stop blabbing so you can bake a "perfectly chocolate"cake. here it is.
