Choopie posted one up here a while ago, which I hope he doesn't mind me reposting: Choopie's Moist Chocolate Cake Ingredients: 1 cup water 1 cup margerine 1/4 cup cocoa powder 2 cups flour 2 cups brown sugar 1 teaspoon baking soda 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon 1 cup sour cream OR 1/2 cup milk (or less) 2 eggs 1 teaspoon vanilla Directions: Bring water, margerine and cocoa to a boil, after boiled and mixed, take off heat. Combine dry ingredients and add to boiled ingredients. Add eggs, vanilla and sour cream (OR milk) Beat. Bake in a greased and floured pan for 40 minutes (or more) at 350ºF Frosting: 1/4 cup butter 1/4 cup cocoa powder 3 tablespoons milk 2 cups icing sugar 1 teaspoon vanilla 1/8 teaspoon cinnamon Boil first 3 ingredients. Add the rest and pour over warm cake. I used it just recently for a friend's birthday cake. When we made it, we doubled the recipe and it made a massive 3 layer cake. My friend also bought nesquik instead of cocoa powder, and we only used half the butter called for, and we didn't have brown sugar so we just used white, but it came out really good. The only thing is we had to bake that mother for a good hour and a half. I think the amount of water called for can be cut down a lot.

I like the chocolate lava cake they have on Carnival Cruise lines :D EDIT: THISS!!!!!  http://www.examiner.com/x-4933-Charlotte-Cruise-Ships-Examiner%7Ey2009m7d22-Carnival-cruises-chocolate-melting-cake-recipe-makes-this-classic-simple - recipie
Preheat your oven to 375 degrees. Melt the chocolate and butter and cool for 10 minutes. In a separate bowl, mix four eggs with sugar. Whisk. Then add flour and whisk. Add the remaining three eggs and add the egg mixture to the chocolate mixture. Pour this entire mixture into individual ramekins. Bake until just done, about 15-20 minutes (interior will be melting). Serve with vanilla ice cream. |

I thought heavy cream was whipping cream? ------------- Real Men play Tuba [IMG]http://img89.imageshack.us/img89/1859/newsmall6xz.jpg"> PH33R TEH 1337 Dwarf! http://www.tippmann.com/forum/wwf77a/log_off_user.asp" rel="nofollow - DONT CLICK ME!!1 |

Yeah, tried that. Half-Half is a light cream. If that works, awesome... but I've never been able to find heavy cream that isn't made for whipping. -------------

Nah nah. I just meant it is near half and half. Heavy cream is just heavy cream. It isn't "made for whipping". Heavy cream just happens to be what is used to make whipped cream if you whip it yourself. ------------- Que pasa?

I know exactly what you mean, but every grocery store I've been to in Daytona has nothing but half and half and whipping cream in stock. Not once have I seen normal heavy cream. -------------

No Tolgak you don't get it! RAWR. "Whipping Cream"=heavy cream " Heavy cream is defined in this country as cream with a fat content of between 30% and 40%" Whipping cream just tends to be cream with a fat content higher than 30% AKA: Heavy cream ------------- Que pasa?

Not really. Use a copper bowl, takes <10 minutes.
