From Cooking Light! In this recipe, the frosting is made first, then part is reserved to ice the cake and the rest is used in the batter. To melt chocolate, place it in a small bowl or custard cup; microwave at HIGH 1 1/2 minutes or until soft, stirring until melted. The original recipe uses 2 (9-inch) round cake pans but I used 1 (9 X 13 inch)pan.
