Try this recipe for a moist mild chocolate cake that cuts cleanly and doesn't need frosting. This scrumptious snack cake travels very well, so it's a snap to share anywhere.
Cake is moist and dense without being too heavy or sweet. I covered it with a chocolate glaze because some parts stuck to the pan and didn't look nice; so the glaze helped to hide the patches. It keeps very well!

You can also use cocoa powder instead of flour when you grease and flour the pan - it prevents the cake from sticking and doesn't leave white powder on your chocolate cake!

instead of using flour to coat your pan - use the cake mix. I use a non-stick cooking spray & 1-2 tablespoons of the cake mix. When you remove your cake it will be "spot free".
Good luck and happy baking!

I made this cake twice following the instructions to a " T ". Both times the cake came out DRY. Can anyone tell me what I can do to make sure it is somewhat moist the next time?.... Until then I will not make this cake again.

It tastes great, but gets no points for my having to clean the oven. It literally exploded. I did everything right, followed the recipe exactly, and even double-checked the oven temp.
But, alas and alak, about a quarter of it is lying in a puddle of burned chocolate on the bottom of my oven. I was able to get the rest of the cake out of the pan, and it will be a great family desert, and I will try it again. Because I've never had a cake explode. I need to see if I can do it twice.
