I had been hearing numerous raves about Hershey’s “Perfectly Chocolate” Chocolate Cake and was waiting for an excuse to make it. I finally broke down yesterday and, with no good reason, made the cake anyway
It definitely lived up to all its hype, without question. It’s the best chocolate cake I have ever had. I chose to frost it with the equally sinful “Perfectly Chocolate” Chocolate Frosting. Really, this cake is too good for words…
“Perfectly Chocolate” Chocolate Frosting (Source: Hershey’s)
1 stick (1/2 cup) butter or margarine
2/3 cup Hershey’s cocoa
3 cups powdered sugar
1/3 cup milk
1 tsp. vanilla extract
Melt butter. Stir in cocoa. Alternately add powdered sugar and milk, beating on medium speed to spreading consistency. Add small additional amount of milk, if necessary (I did not need to). Stir in vanilla. Makes ~2 cups frosting.
Here, I saved you a piece… ENJOY!



























Yum! Chocolate cake sounds awesome right now!
That looks decadent! Can’t wait to try this recipe.
OMG! Put that on my next baking list. I even have everything I need already. Oh it’s on!
(Note – I don’t think I’ve added you to my favorites yet. I need to!)

Thank you so much for saving me a piece. It looks divine!!
MUST. BAKE. THIS.
YUM!
Would this cake stand up to fondant?
Yumm..very good chocolate cake recipe..I played with it used cake flour and buttermilk to the mix..My husbands favorite cake but with Peanut butter icing or Chocolate Ganache
I was wondering if you have tried this as cupcakes?? I have yet to find a recipe that turns out as a moist chocolate cupcake….it’s enough to make me want to pull my hair out!! Or resort to altering a cake mix!!
