This chocolate cake is very special to me. Why is it so special, you may ask? Well, chiefly because this is the very first cake I ever made. And also because it’s the first recipe I ever tried from a food blog, which coincidentally happened to be the first food blog I ever visited, which, in turn, inspired me to start Kitchen Crush. And finally, because I strongly suspect that my husband married me in order to have constant access to this cake (since it’s so totally, unbelievingly delicious in its melt-in-your-mouth, chocolaty goodness). So, you see, if it wasn’t for this grand master of all chocolate cakes, I would be a blogless old maid, with a mustache and thirteen cats, and with no chocolate cake to make me feel better. It’s the truest of all truths, if you learn to make this cake, good things will happen to you.
