If you love total decadence, this cake is it. It is the richest tasting thing ever. It really tastes more like the best brownie you ever had in your life. My son-in-law has a major sweet tooth and he was enraptured. I did have to cook it about 20 minutes longer than it called for. It took that long for the cake to start pulling away from the pan but it is more than worth the wait. This will be a keeper at our house.

Since April 2008, I have been a vegetarian. I dont eat creatures...that's the easiest way to put it! :D
I still eat a small amount of dairy, but not very much.
I have been missing around here for a while, and hope to poke my head in a bit more often from now on...
I hope you enjoy my recipes...
