Add flour mixture alternatively with milk, beating after each addition until smooth. Stir in chocolate mixture and vanilla. Pour into 2 greased and floured 9-inch round cake pans.

"chocolate" and "fudgey"...that's all I needed to read - this sounds so good, and the white chocolate frosting is the perfect topper. It sounds like the perfect "company" fare. Thanks~
