I would say that this is the best chocolate cake recipe ever, it is moist, fudgy, soft and almost like eating a chocolate bar. I loved the little rum flavour wafting through the cake. But you can entirely leave it out. Since it is Christmas, one of my viewer asked for a rum cake, i thought of adding rum to the cake and make it even more special.
