Chocolate Fudge Layer Cake image

Found this in a magazine and it looks so good I want to save it. While it starts with a simple boxed mix and adds a few other ingredients it states the end result is a chocolaty delight, with a fudge-like texture that improves if stored overnight in the fridge. It sure looks good, more brownie like than cake. I'll update this description once I try it. Update 9-8-09: Finally got around to making this and soooo glad I did, such fudgy goodness and enjoyed by everyone who tried it. The only thing I did differant was with the frosting. I defrosted the cool whip (in the fridge) and then melted the choc by itself in the micro and mixed together after, I also used recipe#243117 for the filling to make it even more special. It was fairly simple and the taste was wonderful. Hope you'll enjoy it too.

I'm not a huge fan of chocolate cake, but I really enjoyed this one. It's not too sweet, and the frosting is not too rich.

I made a few minor changes to the recipe, but it still turned out great. I used a different type of chocolate chips, and I added a little bit of espresso powder to the batter.
