Chocolate Cake

I've been saving this post (it's from March) in the hopes that I would find the photo I took of the cake. I still can't find the photo, may have accidentally deleted it....oops, but the recipe is so good I must share it anyway.

For my hubby's birthday, I made him chocolate cake from my new cookbook. It was delicious. We've been having a slice every night after dinner and it's totally worth the calories.

I will share that I had frosting disaster. I bought organic powdered sugar and it made huge lumps in the frosting. On my second try I started sifting the powdered sugar to get all the lumps out (and since I'm very clumsy) I dropped the sifter and sugar went everywhere. Luckily, I had enough sugar to try again but I was really frustrated to waste so many ingredients.

Luckily, I was in a good mood and laughed about it rather then cried. Sometimes, I can't help but shed a few tears when my food doesn't turn out right.

Here is a link for the recipe:
