I won grand champion honors in a potato festival baking contest with this moist chocolate cake. The icing recipe can be doubled for real sweet tooths. A great-grandma, I've spent over 85 years on the farm.

[email protected]This cake was easy to make and turned out great! I used a 9x13 inch pan and it cooked perfectly. The cake was moist and chocolatey, and the potato added a nice density. I will definitely be making this again.
