Collins Chocolate Cake, Member kacey77

This is a fabulous cake. Easy to make and delicious. It is a recipe from the Collins family (Peach Tree Tea Room of Fredericksburg, TX) recipe collection. The original recipe says to COOL the mxture before adding the flour. Wondra flour is great to use with all cakes!
