Barbara's 10-Layer Chocolate Cake - Dee Dee's image

My sister in law Barbara is the baker in our family. I don't think there's anything she can't bake. This is her recipe and it's one of the best and most requested recipe!! When ever Barbara brings this cake to an outing, you can be sure it's the first thing on the dessert table to disappear. People will get a slice of this...
