The ‘I want chocolate cake’ cake from Smitten Kitchen by Deb Perelman

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    This is good when you need a quick chocolate fix. Definitely better than you'll find in most stores. But when I have the time, I have to make Maida Heatter's Cowtown chocolate cake again. More time consuming, but spectacular.

    This is a great chocolate cake considering its simplicity. I made the cake only to pair with some leftover vanilla frosting, and it was a perfect match.

    I doubled #theiwantchocolatecakecake and it was loved by all. The cake was just perfect and very chocolatey with Dutch process cocoa and easy in one bowl.
