Hi,
Heres the chocolate cake recipe Susan requested. (I sent it to her
privately and she thought everyone would like it.) Its actual name is
double chocolate cake (you can omit chips if wish) I would advise checking
after about 25 minutes for doneness. It also has variations which I have
included. See below my name.
