Mon Gateau Au Chocolat by Ali El Safy

An absolutely wonderful cake; most traditionally served without icing. If you're including kids, might want to add your favorite, but I love it the "old school" way!

This is such a fun desset to make and eat. It takes you back to the late 1970's. It makes a nice presentation at the table. It is very rich, but so worth the calories. My husband requests it for his birthday dessert every year.
