I hate being sick :( I know a good thing to cheer me up though. This is THEE BEST chocolate cake ever.See the secret recipe in the background? splashes of secret ingredient on the well loved paper? :D It is SO moist, and so decadent, and even not TOO sweet, very cocoa-y :D
I had a difficult time making it, even though it's not a difficult recipe, must be my groggy head... here's a little excerpt from an email I sent to a friend about the experience ;)
Clearly I am not all better.... I was making THE chocolate cake this morning, poured it into the pan, threw it into the oven and started to clean up... all of a sudden I shrieked, grabbed the oven mitts, pulled the cake out, poured it OUT of the pan into the mixing bowl and proceeded to add the 1.5 cups of sugar called for in the recipe. LOL! Thank HEAVENS it was only in the oven for about a minute.... It didn't come out of the pan very well once it was baked either as some of the marg that I buttered the pan with had melted off into the batter... BUT I prevailed... BUT then I started icing it while it was too warm and the icing started dripping off the cake... really, it was pretty darn funny... I scrapped the extra icing off the plate, let it cool (at this point it looked like the lunar surface) and finished icing it. Still looks a little odd, but I think it will taste good... I can't believe I didn't burn it too....
