Rich Chocolate Pound Cake Valentine's Day Rich Chocolate Pound Cake Valentine's Day

My husband requested "Chocolate cake that's rich but not too sweet." I made 3 different cakes, and my husband said "this one is the best!"The margarine and eggs might separate because there are more eggs. Please don't bother and add chocolate if they separate. You can keep it for a couple of days in the refrigerator, but since there is a lot of chocolate in the cake, it will be quite hard directly out of the refrigerator. Please bring the cake back to room temperature and enjoy. Recipe by Nyanyadeko
