This sheet cake with chocolate is just everything. The secret is the topping of double cocoa and whipped chocolate cream and fresh strawberries. I think this is the best chocolate cake!
With chocolate!! Chocolate is needed by everyone, period. Without chocolate, could you survive? Possibly. Would you be an enjoyable person in my life with no chocolate? Hey, no. Does that turn you into an emotional eater? Probably, but with that, I think you’re cool.
But really, I love chocolate, and I love chocolate cake, too! It is, after all, two of the absolute best foods combined into one, so that, of course, makes it one of the most epic things in the food world, right? Yes, that statement, of course, is correct and it is not to be argued with. I believe it’s safe to say that this Chocolate Sheet Cake is going to make everyone swoon!
