Ma de this tonight for m y gue sts. I will de fine tly be k e e ping this in m y re cipe box ! It's a little work , but tota lly worth it! Gue sts sa id it taste d lik e som e thing you'd e at a re staurant! I'm not a huge fan of cak e , and I thought it was de licious!! I didn't use the frosting/filling though. I use d the "Glossy C hocolate Frosting R e cipe " (Ta ste of Hom e , Light & Tasty) a s the filling and icing inste a d. It wa s fabulous on this ca k e !
