Rich & Ruffled Chocolate Celebration Cake. Happy Thursday!

It’s simply the yummiest, richest, most delicious cake recipe I have (not to mention the easiest).

The assembly is about as easy as you can get. Do this by hand, until the dry ingredients are just incorporated into the wet, and stop. Stir in the chocolate chips. Line a 9×13 baking dish with parchment. Pour the batter and spread it out. Bake at 325° for 20-30 minutes. Very carefully lift the parchment out of the baking dish. Peel the edges and let cool for a few minutes before slicing. Like this recipe? Cinnamon Sugar Pull-Apart Bread.
