Decadent Dark Chocolate Cake

This is the moistest, richest and most amazing chocolate cake I have ever eaten. I have made it time and again and it always turns out perfectly. It is very popular amongst my co-workers, especially the men (go figure). I will never buy a chocolate boxed cake ever again because the simplicity and the unbeatable flavor of this cake.
 
The most important step is to gather all your ingredients before beginning any of the other steps. Having all your ingredients gathered together insures ease and accuracy. Also, it helps with bringing all ingredients to room temperature since that is how you get an evenly baked and moist cake.
 
 
 
 
Due to the amount and type of liquids used, the batter is very thin.

 
The tops of the cake always seem to have an odd wrinkled center. It never seems to fall or cause any trouble otherwise. It just looks rather odd.

 
Let the cake cool completely so that the frosting will not melt off.
 


 
This is all that is ever left of this cake. Enjoy it while it lasts.
