Tasted just like my great grandmother’s cake that she made on special occasions.

This cake is amazing! Family favorite. I substitute coffee for water. people beg me to make this for birthdays and holidays.

Although I didn’t have a jelly roll pan I used a 9x13 so the cake was thicker than it should’ve been but was still delicious!
Took it to a party and everyone loved it.
Super moist and the fudge like frosting is so good!

Absolutely delicious! May sound tricky but it really is easy and so unique with the blend of butter, cinnamon and chocolate. Every time I make, I get tons of raves.

This is incredibly easy to make and delicious. Easy cleanup. No beaters are necessary.
