My Mom made the BEST chocolate cake on this earth. It saddened me that the recipe was not written down. I recently learned that my cousin Bernadette had a copy. Much to my surprise, I discovered that the recipe wasn’t my Mom’s, but it was my Aunt Anne’s recipe. I hope your family enjoys it as much as we all did.
