CHOCOLATE CAKE

This is an AWESOME chocolate cake recipe I got from Allrecipes.com.  There were no left overs of this one!!

INGREDIENTS:
1/2 C margarine
1 C water
2 oz unsweetened chocolate (I used Ghiradelli baking squares)
2 C flour
2 C white sugar
2 eggs
1/2 tsp salt
1-1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 C sour milk/buttermilk

DIRECTIONS:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch pan. In a microwave-safe bowl, microwave chocolate, margarine and water until melted. Stir occasionally until chocolate is smooth. Allow to cool to room temperature.
2. In a large bowl, mix together flour, sugar, salt and soda. Pour in milk and eggs. Mix the cooled chocolate mixture into the batter. Pour into prepared pan.
3. Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 30 to 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the cake comes out clean.

I frosted the cake with a chocolate glaze, but you can use any type of icing you want - buttercream, cream cheese frosting, etc.
