For the Love of Eating - Chocolate Cake

There are many things we find to do with our time.  Hobbies fill that creative urge and exercise fills that physical demand to feel better. 

Then there is eating. 

Some of us crave veggies, some crave meat and then there are the many of us like me that crave sweets.  Not just anything sweet, but anything sweet with CHOCOLATE!  We are blessed with many fine cooks, chefs and pastry chefs in the professional world but last night, in a sleepy little community in Burlington, NC, I found the best chocolate cake maker in the world!  Her name is Marie.  She is 80 years old and bakes the most divine chocolate multi-layer cake this palate has ever savored!

Please excuse the missing fork fulls at the time of the  picture.  It was just too good to resist!  Just look at all those tiny layers!!! YUM!

We fixed her A/C unit last night and as an added bonus she gave me this plate of super thin, multi-layer chocolate cake.  It is the most moist, wonderful chocolate cake I have ever tasted and I've had my share over the years!  I wonder what she will give me this winter when we service her heat???  Can't wait to find out!

Thank you Marie. 

You are a true credit to Southern Cooks!
