Default Anyone have a moist chocolate cake recipe?

The Hershey's recipe for Black Magic cake is the moistest chocolate cake I've ever
had, with the possible exception of a flourless cake, which is not the same thing
IMO.

Google it, you won't be disappointed!!

Yes, the Black Magic cake is wonderful. I also like Hershey's recipe for
"Perfectly Chocolate" Chocolate Cake, which is very moist. A search for
"chocolate cake" on Hershey's website list numerous variations on cakes made
the same way.

Ward, that's almost identical to the Died-and-went-to-Heaven Chocolate
Cake that I posted here about 10 days ago. A good one!! I notice that
your recipe is baked in a 9x13 pan -- have you ever done it in a tube
pan/bundt pan?

Not to be a party poop, but any cake with 1/2 C of oil will be moist.
It'll be even more moist with 2/3 C.

Right. Almost identical. Mine has 1/4 cup oil. :-P
No prunes, either, to make up the difference.

I second the "Perfectly Chocolate" chocolate cake thing. This is the best
chocolate cake on the planet. Sometimes you can find it printed on the back
of the Hershey's Cocoa can. And if you take the time to make the frosting
that is also on the can, you will have the closest thing to Heaven on Earth
there is.

My mother used to make us an after school snack of this chocolate cake.
It was very fine!
http://www.worldwideschool.org/libra...ake/Chap1.html
It is very moist and simple, but you eat it up right away. I feel like
hers had more than 3 Tbsp of cocoa, though.

Yes, the frosting recipe is wonderful! Before we both started Weight
Watchers, this cake and frosting was the standing request of my chocoholic
SO. I made it so often I had it memorized. :-) I usually baked it as a
sheet cake, but for guests I made it as a layer cake.

I love your frosting recipe. I won't be baking a cake for some time as I'm
still on WW and losing, but I will definitely make it for the next chocolate
cake.

I've made most of the chocolate cake recipes on Hershey's site and like them
all. I love the coffee in the Black Magic Cake.

Well, David's a cake chocoholic. He'd sooner have a hunk of chocolate cake

Less work for me, and we like the results. They also make nice cakes to take
to work for birthdays, etc.
