The Best Chocolate Cake Ever
Every Friday I go up to Hudson, NY where I bake desserts at my friend’s restaurant, Grazin’—recently voted best burgers in Columbia County. Every Friday, I bake this cake, and everyone goes bonkers for it. You know what else I do most Fridays? I come home and make it for me and the girls, too (perhaps sleep deprivation explains the smudgy frosting on this cake plate above). It sounds crazy, having spent a better part of the day baking for work, only to come home and do it again, but there’s a good reason. This is seriously the best chocolate cake ever.
That’s a hefty proclamation, and I’m not one to say that unless I truly believe it. I know a lot about chocolate cakes—the good and the bad ones. I ate my way through many of them while pregnant with Isabella 14 years ago (that might also explain why she loves this cake so much).
