[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've tried many cake recipes and frankly find it not to be worth the effort. The box mixes are quite good and I don't think it matters what brand you get. When I've brought cakes to things - using box mixes - my cakes disappear quicky while a lot of the home made ones sit around. Other friends of mine who are good bakers & cooks agree not to bother with scratch.[/quote] I hate mix cakes. They have a very strange off taste. I am always disappointed when a cake looks homemade and I taste it and it is obviously a mix. I like recipes from the Cake Bible and I like Ina Garten's Cakes but this is my favorite easy no fail chocolate cake recipe. You have to double or triple it for a party. If it's just for up to 6 people, the size is perfect. I make a Swiss meringue buttercream frosting for it but the regular fudge icing in the recipe is good too. http://www.saveur.com/article/Recipes/Aunt-Sabellas-Black-Chocolate-Cake-with-Fudge-Icing[/quote]
