This cake, by far, is the BEST Chocolate Cake I've ever had. A recipe handed down from Jason's (my hubby) Grandmother. A recipe that she had made since the 1960's. A recipe he refers to as a SECRET {although I'm not 100% sure it is. I've seen others that are pretty darn close}.
This cake has now become a family favorite. My nephews {who are an "extra" addition to my family of four :)} often request it, as does the hubby. BUT, I don't make it often. I like that it brings Jason back to a happy time in his life & I don't want him to lose sight of that. I worry if I make it too often, it will take away the "wow" factor for him.
Although I never got to taste his Grandma's, Jason says it tastes just as he remembers it. And that, warms my heart.
So now my question...Should any recipe ever really be a secret? Why not share the goodness? ...I think I may have mixed feelings on this one. Hmmm, something to ponder.
