Very yummy milk chocolate cake. Moist and rich. The icing was great too. I only had 2 cups powdered sugar so I 2/3rd the recipe and it was just the right amount to frost both layers.
You cannot add chocolate chips to this cake recipe. They just sink to the bottom, as the batter is so thin. Sad, but still delicious!
