Notes: This cake is so rich and heavenly! It is one of my favorite chocolate cake recipes because the icing is so tasty and it is all very moist. I got the recipe from "The White House Volunteers Cookbook" (1987 edition) that an old boyfriend's mother gave me -- she used to work at the White House as the event coordinator for Nancy Regan, I believe. - Linda
