Cake Notes:

The Cookbook’s Ingredient List Calls For Pastry Flour; I Substituted Cake Flour. Also, You Can Use The Microwave For Melting The Chocolate. If You Melt On High Power In A Glass Bowl, Microwave In 15-Second Increments, Stirring Between Times To Melt The Chocolate. It Will Take From 45 Seconds To 1 Minute.
