perfect Chocolate Cake Mccall’s Cooking School, My Grandmother use to make this every Christmases, some the recipe got out of her book never to be seen again!! Finally found it! Makes a truly wonderful chocolate cake, Making this right now my Favorite My recipe is so old I looked to find a copy that I can have for back-up Happy I found this , This is my favorite chocolate cake! My mom would make it for me for Thanksgiving She passed away in 06 I found the recipe in her folder of recipes and made it – poorly- the first few times The filling was too loose I just made it again about 10 years later added a bit more confectioners sugar and vanilla to the filling PERFECT!
