Chocolate Thunder Cake

Congratulations are in order. I'm excited to announce 9 year old Kelcie won a first place blue ribbon and a big purple ribbon for Smithton Town and Country Fair Best of Show with the Symphony Pie recipe I posted a few weeks ago!! Her mom emailed me to share the news. Kelcie made it all by herself. I'm so excited and honored she chose a recipe from my blog. I'm proud of you Kelcie! I would also like to say a BIG happy birthday to my friend Tina (who's by the way a janitor who strips floors, not clothing...). She's the big 50 today! I brought this cake to work to celebrate with her. It's very easy to make and everyone seemed to enjoy it. Most of them ate two pieces, so it must have good :)
