Nana’s Famous Chocolate Cake Nana’s Famous Chocolate Cake
This recipe was quite popular on Reddit a couple of years ago. I’ve wanted to try it for a while, and since my daughter specifically wanted a chocolate cake with chocolate frosting for her birthday, it was a perfect opportunity!The instructions on Reddit were minimal, so I approached it as I would any other standard cake. This cake baked beautifully and was wonderfully moist and chocolatey. It’s not overly sweet and also has a medium-light texture, not dense or heavy.Please note that I multiplied the original recipe by a factor of 1.5 to obtain the amounts listed here since I was baking a three tier cake.#Dessert #KeepRecipesAlive #Party #Birthday #Potluck Chris Gan
