It's absolutely to die for, but watch out for the cals and carbs....enough for a whole days worth!!! Not for those trying to stay light on their feet this holiday season. What a great dessert to take to that holiday party!!! There won't be another like it! It's simple, delicious and you will be envied....
the chocolate - cranberry combo cannot be beat....I used shaved chocolate on top to dress it up a bit and it was beautifully tasty!!!

I think they were trying to say there are 8 servings in the cake, meaning the 1200+ calories listed is for 1/8 of the cake. The two sticks (one cup) of plain butter alone in this recipe have over 1600 calories alone, before you even add any other ingredients. This is an extremely fattening cake but delicious!

To wickeddingo07 - Look at the ingredients again. Just the butter, chocolate pieces, sugar, eggs and cream add up to about 7,500 calories and over 600 grams of fat! Bring it to a party and leave it there!

It sounds heavenly, but it is soooooo not trim, the butter in one serving alone is going to be over 100 cals. No way to budget that one into a low cal diet, but hey it is the holidays so I may go for it anyway!!

This cake tastes amazing! However, it is tricky to slice. No matter how we cut it, it just crumbled into chunks.

This was more the consistency of a brownie than a "cake". I was hoping for a cake texture and was dissapointed.
The taste was good, but if you are looking for a cake, try another recipe.

Actually with 2 cups of cream, 8 eggs and 2 full sticks of butter, there is no way this would be considered a trim, or light cake. That has to be the calories per serving. Of course that is the best way to make an absolutely delicious cake...

Actually, I believe the calorie amount listed is for THE ENTIRE CAKE, not just one piece. So that would be 160 calories in one piece, which, as desserts go, is pretty trim.
