This is a wonderfully easy chocolate cake recipe and its so delicious. It has a hint of cinnamon but not enough to distract from the chocolate. If you enjoy baking with children this is a good one. Ice the cake while hot. You can serve hot or cold. (my favorite) Don't make the icing until cake is out of the oven, icing must be hot to pour over cake.
