Looking through my mother’s hand-written recipes recently, I came across a recipe for Newfoundland Chocolate Cake that uses basic baking ingredients. Fast and simple, I thought it would be perfect for the next Oven Lovin’ installment. The original recipe called for baking cocoa, and as it turns out, I was completely out. As necessity is the mother of invention, my teen daughter’s suggestion was to use Swiss Miss Dark Chocolate mix. And man, am I glad she did! The cake is moist and delicious- and a snap to bake!
