Is there any easy chocolate cake recipe?

My children whenever they go outside love having chocolate cake. When we go outside , and order a big chocolate cake, it does not take them much time to finish the chocolate cake. They just gobble up all the chocolate cake, with only crumbs left in the plate for me. I have never made chocolate cake, but have only seen my wife prepare it for my kids, but now that she has gone for an official tour and I am at home with the kids, I want to make a yummy chocolate cake for them. Is there any easy chocolate cake recipe that is easy to prepare?

Chocolate cake is my favorite too! I simply love them. I can help you with easy chocolate cake recipe. This excellent chocolate cake recipe is moist and delicious, and it's very easy to make. It's a one bowl cake, topped with a simple chocolate frosting. It goes like this. Ingredients include 3 squares unsweetened chocolate, 2/3 cup butter, 1 cup water, 2 cups flour, 2 cups sugar, 3 tbs cocoa powder, pinch of salt, 1-1/4 tsp. baking soda, 1/2 cup buttermilk, 2 eggs, 2 tsp. vanilla etc. Now, Now, preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a large saucepan, melt 3 squares chocolate and 2/3 cup butter in the hot water and bring to a boil. Remove from heat and add flour, sugar, cocoa powder, salt, and baking soda. Mix well with a wire whisk or eggbeater. Then stir in buttermilk, eggs, and 2 tsp. vanilla and beat until smooth. Pour into pan and bake at 350 degrees for 25-30 minutes. While the cake is baking, make the frosting. In a heavy saucepan, melt 2 squares chocolate and 1/4 cup butter together. Add powdered sugar, milk, 2 tsp. vanilla, and a pinch of salt and beat well. You may need to add more milk or powdered sugar to reach the desired consistency: the frosting should be pourable. When the cake comes out of the oven, let cool for 15 minutes, then beat the frosting again and pour onto the cake. And recipe is ready. Hope you like it!
