BLACK MAGIC CHOCOLATE CAKE

August 10, 2015 By Aniko 2 Comments

black magic cake with cerries

How about some indulgence for Monday morning? I personally LOVE chocolate cake in any form. On a Sunday afternoon, I did not know what I needed. I knew I needed something sweet, but I wasn’t sure what I was craving for. That’s when I set down, search the net and found this amazingBlack Magic Cake recipe that I am sharing with you today.

Chocolate and cherries can only be a fantastic combo together. Agreed? The original recipe did not call for cherries,  but I thought it could just be a great addition to this cake.   A few years ago I discovered the best morello cherries  at Trader Joe’s and I have been using these cherries for baking ever since.
