My mom makes the best chocolate cake ever. When I asked Jake what kind of cake he wanted for his birthday, he immediately said, "Grandma Hansen's chocolate cake!" I was happy to oblige because it is my favorite cake! It is the only kind of birthday cake I can ever remember having growing up, and she still makes me one for my birthday every year. Thanks Mom!

You are welcome Jenny. I don't like to cook except when it is something my kids like. Your cake was delicious, as good as any I have ever made.
When I see this picture my mouth waters!
