This was one my English Grandmother made and had in her box hand written around 1919. This is seriously the best chocolate cake ever. I don't know where she got it from.. Maybe Hershey? The secret is the boiling water . It tempers the cocoa ...making chocolate and makes it so moist and kinda fudgey. I get requests for this one. My manboy could eat in 1 day if I would have let him.
