Chocolate Lover's Favorite Cake




In my family, there is always the King or Queen of something. Emma is the queen of French Toast, Christian is the King of ribs, my daughter Brinley and I are the Queen's of Chocolate. This cake is so moist and I love the flavor of the almond extract and the slightly melted chocolate chips. Top it with a satiny glaze and if you're really in the mood for a treat, vanilla ice cream and hot fudge sauce.
