Notes
This cake is chocolatey, gooey, and delicious! This is a perfect dessert to make for special occasions or anytime you’re in the mood for a chocolate dessert. It doesn’t have to be your birthday to make a chocolate cake.
My favorite part of making desserts is adding the toppings. Decorating is just as fun as baking, and I always have fun adding toppings. I added these colorful sprinkles on top that make the cake pop. You could also add a chocolate drizzle, peanut drizzle, or fruit on top.
