This cake (and yes it just happens to be yet another chocolate dish) lives up to it's name. It is heavy and rich and really doesnt even need any icing. But of course it couldn't hurt:) The prep time is very short so most of the cooking goes into the baking time. Read more This cake actually gets better as it sits for a day or so. So if you need to make it ahead of time it still tastes marvelous the next day! See less
