Oh yes, make sure you take a good look at all that chocolate heaven almost dripping off the plate.
I was so excited when Tina announced what this month’s challenge would be for the Crazy Cooking Challenge!
Chocolate Cake!
And all I had to do was find a recipe from someone else’s blog, bake, and then write about it. I had scoped out a few possibilities then Affair from the Heart posted this. Chocolate Bliss Cake. But it’s not just the cake, it was also raspberry sauce and devonshire cream. When Michaela makes something you get the whole experience!
I gathered up my ingredients and headed into the kitchen.
