Recipes with cocoa powder

Normally, this cake is made in a bundt or tube pan. Today, I chose to make only half the recipe and bake in four ramekins for approximately 17 minutes. While the glaze was still wet, I sprinkled the little cakes with some multicolored nonpareils to make them a little more festive. Feliz Cinco de Mayo!

If you are a chocolate fan, this is an excellent recipe for you to try without guilt, it is much lighter than normal chocolate pie. The thick chocolate taste will satisfy you. Also it is a great dessert for holiday.

These days it seems to be all the rage among my Facebook friends to post and repost ad nauseum a seemingly neverending list of recipes that SEEM like they might be super delicious.
