I'm not a big cake fan but when I tasted this I couldn't resist asking for the recipe. It has turned in to one of my favorite choco-holic recipes. It's rich, sweet, and more dense than regular cake. You'll probably find that one piece is more than enough. After all, it contains 3 sticks of butter. Yum! For an Oreo-like flavor I like to use black cocoa powder. For those of you in Utah you can find it at Kitchen Kneads. This dessert takes a little longer to put together than a cake-mix cake but you'll appreciate that effort later.
