French chocolate cake for Easter

Easter is coming!

Do you like chocolate?? I love it! I can eat it every day 🙂

In France, we love delicious and simple chocolate cake. When I was a kid, my mom always made me a “moelleux au chocolat”. Then growing up I started to make some with her. Now, I make it alone and I love it so much. 

It’s so funny because it’s the simplest cake ever but every French love it. You can find it in the boulangerie or every where. What is for you THE American cake?

I thought that offering you this cake for Easter would be a superb idea, very chocolaty and delicious. Actually, you could have all the ingredients in your cupboards because it’s very simple. 

Best, Mary
