HERSHEY’S PERFECTLY CHOCOLATE- Chocolate Cake

Aug 25 by 1 Comment

This is by far one of my favorite chocolate recipes to use when making cake pops. The texture is light and airy with a yummy smooth chocolatey taste. This is a recipe from the Hershey website. I didn’t make this up unfortunately… But I still wanted to share it with you. I hope you try it and love it as much as I do.
