Moist, black, and tender. I made this for Father’s Day and it was an impressive success. I got a little bit carried away with the frosting and piped edges and curly letters and big hearts and then dotted it all over with whole rasberries and individual seeds. A little tacky a lot beyootiful. I used extra dark cocoa, but the rasberries made a world of difference in keeping it flavorful vs. dull. Oh, and I loved the frosting.
