Like many of you, I love chocolate. I love it in drinks, as dessert, and even in sauces like mole. Thinking about my childhood, I am reminded of all of my birthdays and the chocolate cake that was always part of it; we usually purchased it from one of our favorite restaurants where they served homemade food and decadent pastries like this cake. Thinking about these moments, I couldn’t contain the urge to savor the fantastic moist texture with frosting (also chocolate) again, so I took advantage of the modern kitchen and purchased a box of Betty Crocker Super Moist™ Cake Mix. By adding a few ingredients I was able to indulge in my childhood memory.
