I happen to pass by hershey’s website and saw it’s “Perfectly Chocolate ” Chocolate cake recipe. I was not able to grab hershey’s cocoa, I just used whatever is available in our local grocery store. At the same time, I tried to modify some ingredients as powdered sugar is likewise not available in our “rural” town. 😛 Nevertheless, my family, and all my friends who have tasted this recipe agrees that it is such a perfect chocolate cake. 🙂 I am soooo excited to invest more on my baking stuff and big oven soon as this hobby is so de-stressing.
