ROMANO'S MACARONI GRILL CHOCOLATE CAKE RECIPE



Romano's Macaroni Grill Chocolate Cake Recipe image

This information was found at the About.com website, cooking for kids:http://kidscooking.about.com/od/desserts/r/macgrillchoccak.htm The first time I tried the Macaroni Grill chocolate cake, I immediately wanted the recipe. It is moist on the inside with a decadent chocolate ganache topping, then it is finished off with chopped walnuts. Although I'm told the authentic Macaroni Grill chocolate cake recipe calls for coffee, I wanted to make a version for the kids. So this smothered chocolate cake recipe uses buttermilk in place of the coffee.

This is a replica of my grandma's recipe only tweaked a little since she didn't leave us an actual recipe. It's sorta a pudding/custard type dessert. Not too sweet and very creamy. It took me a few times to perfect it, but I am sure you will enjoy this Italian homemade specialty. Serve warm or cold.
