A couple years ago, at a dinner we hosted, a friend brought this desert. It is the most amazing cake! I had forgotten about this recipe and found it at Christmas time so was able to make it for everyone. It's an easy recipe considering how rich and delicious this cake turns out! It is sure to be a hit.
