I got this recipe from another 'blue ribbon junkie' friend of mine years ago. It is very firm and very fine textured. It is the only cake I use when doing cake sculpting, and works very well in the 2 piece cake molds. The lowest ribbon it has ever worn, when entered into baking competitions is a Blue Ribbon, and it has gotten as high as Best of Show at a State Fair.

I found this recipe and wanted to share it with you all. It turned out very good. It's not too sweet and not too chocolaty. You can add more cocoa if you'd like.
