The Art Of Making Life Easier And Loving It!
Hershey's Dark Chocolate Cake
This recipe is from the Hershey Chocolate Company. This is the only one I make because it is the best, a dump cake so easy to throw together. But better and darker than any other chocolate cake I've found.
Topped with a cream cheese frosting, it becomes addictive!

My husband loved chocolate cake but could not find one around town to suit him. So I started baking up recipes for him to test. And nothing satisfied him.
Til this one was published by the Hershey Company to advertise their deep dark baking chocolate. This became our all-time favorite.
Peace and satisfaction reigned again in the kitchen.
