I've baked a lot of chocolate cakes but this version is based on one of the hold Hersheys recipes and it is darn good! This is an easy homemade chocolate cake made in ONE BOWL! Yep - simple! The cake is moist and tender with lots of bold chocolate flavor. I frost it with this whipped vanilla buttercream but I also provide a chocolate buttercream recipe in the post. #chocolate #cake #baking #easy #fromscratch
