Chocolate Cake Recipe
This chocolate cake recipe has many happy memories. There was a time in our life's when I had my own home-based computer business, and my wife was a chef. My wife used to bake this chocolate cake for my clients when they visited our home to get the computers repaired. This black magic cake recipe is very popular and will tease your tastebuds too.
Now, all that has changed. My wife works as a financial clerk and I work as a solutions engineer for a large international IT company. But one thing remains of those good days. The smell of the chocolate cake baking in the oven, and the house filled with the smell of the delicious baking chocolate, filling your heart, making you feel good.
My visiting clients used to love the taste of this chocolate cake. They used to beg me for this chocolate cake recipe and always wanted to know where I got the chocolate cake from. I told them my wife bakes the chocolate cake, but I cannot share the recipe, because I will run out of business, and my clients will stop visiting.
That is up until now. Now we are willing to share the recipe. I will let them all know that the famous chocolate cake recipe they have always been looking for has finally been revealed. The cat is out of the hat.
We are happy you are here and hope you enjoy this chocolate cake recipe. Please let us know what you think of this recipe if you have tried it.
Thanks an enjoy this easy chocolate cake recipe.
