Chocolate Marsala Cake
"This is my 'go to' cake and I make it at least once a week. It is so easy and always works. It is also delicious enough to serve as a party cake. I'm not a fan of frosting or icing so I usually just dress this in sifted icing sugar. Make sure cake is cold before dusting with icing sugar. It is from a great book called '50 Fabulous Chocolate Cakes' [ed Rita Erlich]"

I didn't have marsala when I went to make this cake, so used 1/4 cup of white grape juice & a teaspoon of apricot brandy instead ~ Other than that I followed the recipe right on down & baked it in an 8" cake pan! And, since I'd already made your recipe #357941 #357941, I used a small drizzle of that to top of the slices of cake! ABSOLUTELY GREAT, especially for a chocoholic like myself!

I love cooking sweet things - cakes, puddings, bickies, muffins... I believe everyone's happy to help you eat homemade cake. Shop bought cake is a waste of calories! My cooking hero is Donna Hay for her fantastic, fuss-free recipes. I'm famous for always bringing dessert.
