A few days ago, someone posted this recipe on a social media site, noting it came from the Milwaukee Public Library Recipe File. Being the curious person I am, I felt the need to try out the recipe and I’m glad I did! It’s so easy to put together, using simple ingredients you most likely have in your cupboard. Best of all, NO GREASING THE PAN!!! The only change I made was adding a teaspoon of Expresso powder, as I believe it intensifies the chocolate flavor. I choose to frost it with Chocolate Buttercream Frosting (recipe is on this site).
