I just know that adding chocolate to cake batter makes for a rich, buttery cake with such an incredibly desirable texture. Finally, once you add a topping that is also prepared with real chocolate, you are already in chocolate paradise.
You can make it pretty like this!
Not as dense as a traditional chocolate cake, but very decadent nonetheless.
