I think this might be the world's best chocolate cake...
When I told my roommate that she laughed and asked me who said it was the world's best chocolate cake? My answer was, "well... the person who made the recipe in my cookbook said that". Her and I just laughed. But, after making it and having a non-biased taste tester, aka, Quinn, my brother's girlfriend try it, I truly think it might be the best chocolate cake. This recipe is from a new cook book I just ordered. It is from "Sweet", which is the same author as my other cook book, "Jerusalem". This book is THICK. I only skimmed it and haven't looked at all the recipes yet. As I was flipping through I saw this gorgeous photo of a chocolate cake so I decided to read the notes and saw it had been dubbed the "World's Best Chocolate Cake" in a magazine. The author noted it should be called the world's easiest cake, which sold me instantly. After spending only about 30 minutes making the cake with a few ingredients, I would say this was pretty easy. My arm was definitely tired after all the whisking and sifting by hand, but it was easy enough. The taste however almost created a sense of nostalgia, the texture and rich, dark chocolate flavor brought me back to all the chocolate lave cakes I ate as a child. Quinn suggested I add another name to this cake and call it "restaurant cake", because for her, it reminded her of a fancy cake she would get in a restaurant. That was all the compliment I needed to feel I had accomplished creating another tasty treat! In the spirit of trying new things, I made my 2nd vlog. I figured why not vlog as I bake.
