I made my first entry in The Chocolate Cake Quest when I made Mark's half birthday cake. It was from Our Best Bites. I made the cake and the frosting. They weren't too labor intensive which is important. I dirtied a lot more dishes than if I'd made a cake mix and my regular frosting, but this is, after all, The Quest.
The cake was a tiny bit dry. Not really dry, but not as moist as I'd like. The frosting was a little too rich. I liked it, but I should have used a thinner layer.
I had enough extra frosting to make these:
I should have made more.
I didn't need such a thick layer of frosting and frosting on graham crackers is maybe the ambrosia the Greek gods ate on Mt. Olympus.
The Quest continues.

Looks super yummy!! I just love that web site and I have the cookbook too. I have made a lot of yummy things from them. They sell the cookbook at Costco. Thanks for sharing the cake quest!
Thanks a lot. This is the first day of my diet and that cake looks divine! Do you think I'll be able to think of anything else now?
