Who doesn’t love cake?!
I may have mentioned this before, but each week we try to invite someone over for dinner. Sometimes it’s friends from church, neighbors, missionaries… you name it. We do this to help us get to know other better and make friends too. Sometimes we have pizza night and sometimes I make a homemade meal, but something I always make is DESSERT!! Usually it’s a bar or cake recipe, which means I’m always looking for new ones to try out. Today’s recipe just happens to be a new cake that is delicious and simple – Fudgy Buttermilk Cake.
First off, I love cake, but cake with buttermilk is my favorite! It just enhances the yummy flavor making it even more addicting and delicious. Second, anything with the word “fudgy” is bound to be good! And trust me – this recipe is GOOD! We usually serve our cake with ice cream, but I had this by itself, and it was so soft and chocolate-y. I have a few chocolate cakes I make all the time, but I’m glad I now have a new recipe to try when company comes over.
For all the chocolate lovers, I know you’ll enjoy this Fudgy Buttermilk Cake recipe:
