Y'all know one of my favorite things to do is baking and one of my go to recipes is old fashioned chocolate cake! This is a great base recipe for cake, cupcakes and even layered desserts. I use buttermilk to keep the cake moist and ground flax seed meal as a binding agent. Try this recipe at your next dinner or get together and it will definitely be a hit!
