If you like chocolate as much as I do, this cake is for you! Rich, moist, dense, creamy...and with the Fudge Frosting, it doubles your chocolate pleasure!
Warning: This is NOT a light cake, it's got substance (mostly the chocolate, cream cheese kind). Yum!
It's a 5-star, beautiful cake that people will think took hours to prepare, when, really, it comes together quickly.
Your grandma or great-grandma may have made this cake back in the day. It hasn't changed and delights everyone, while bringing back good memories.
Blend in chocolate.
Stir in vanilla and sugar. Beat until of spreading consistency. Add a few drops of milk if necessary. Spread evenly over cooled cake.
Be encouraged!

My husband's niece gave me this recipe years ago, and whenever I've taken it to a pot luck dinner, or a special dessert for the family, everyone always asks for the recipe. Now, I just carry copies with me. Ha!
Remember to slice your pieces on the smaller side, because it's filling. It's also very worth it!
