Chocolate Cake from Scratch



One of my sisters shared this Ruth Reichl chocolate cake recipe with me. I decided to try it although I am quite happy with making chocolate cake from a mix and lately adding some pudding mix to it. Well, this cake from scratch is darn good! I highly recommend it. You may have to halve the recipe as it makes two 9x13" cakes. When I halved it, it just made one 9 inch cake, go figure.

My diabetic husband M preferred the cake mix version saying it was light and moist as opposed to this more dense cake.  Daughter L and I like them both.

Oh yum! I love chocolate cake, but I'm the only one in the family who does. Mom and Art are into fruitcake.
