Chocolate Cake

I made this and the frosting for David's birthday. I added a drained can of tart cherries too. I wasn't able to eat any of it, but everyone seemed to like it well enough.

Purpose

This blog is meant to keep track of what I cook and what I think about it.

There is a rating system built in to the labels on each post. Each recipe is rated from -5 to 5, where 0 is neutral, -5 is super nasty and 5 is heavenly. These ratings are usually based on what DH (the dear husband whose initials happen to also be DH).

In the recipe cases where DH and I disagree, I have added a second rating with my own initials after it. Generally I am more critical of the food I cook than DH is, so my separate ratings are almost always lower.

Some helpful labels:

quick: little or no preparation.

superfast: literally no preparation other than assembly/heating. This tag is used for recipes that can be prepared on the spot, often using some canned food.

rotation: this tag is used for recipes I'd like to make frequently.
