PREACHER'S CHOCOLATE CAKE
I don't know where my mother got this recipe from but it is a wonderful rich moist chocolate cake. Frost with Recipe #110707 and it tastes just like Hostess Cup Cakes but oh so much better. Mom would make 2 layers - fill and frost sides with the Whipped Cream Frosting, then use regular chocolate frosting for the top. Milk anyone?

- Bake the cake in a preheated oven: This will help the cake rise evenly.
- Don't overbake the cake: A toothpick inserted into the center of the cake should come out with just a few moist crumbs attached.
- Let the cake cool completely before frosting it: This will help the frosting set properly.
- Store the cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
