Moist Chocolate Cake

I will be off on vacation from now till 25th May 2011. Please pandon me if your comments are not published or replied during this period as I may not be able to access to any internet. Before that, I will like to share this simple to make Moist chocolate cake with all of you. Why simple? Because you just need to beat all ingredients together for few minutes and bake! Easy right! Thanks Happy Flour for sharing this recipe. 

It's a very chocolaty and moist cake, texture a bit muffin like! Are you tempted by it...lol!
