I love baking, so I like to keep trying different cake recipes. But I loved making and eating this cake so much, that I end up making this cake very often. The cake is so rich and chocolaty that it can be enjoyed plain without any topping or ganache. I think it will taste great with a dollop of vanilla ice-cream too. Maybe I will try that soon. ?
