meiteoh 0 Report post Posted June 1, 2008 Lilian, when trying to make chocolate cake, maybe you can add a little bit more butter and milk (like a few tablespoons) to the recipe than what is written - butter makes your cake more fragrant and milk adds moisture. Try not to overbake it or bake it at very high temp - high temperature tends to dry out your cake.I'll try to dig out my recipe books for a nice chocolate cake recipe.
