YUMMY PICNIC CHOCOLATE CAKE…IT’S HEALTHY TOO!!

POUND AWAY, POUND AWAY… It’s the Mocha Chocolate Chip Pound Cake
My vote for an everyday/on-the-go cake goes to the Pound Cake!! Its the one cake that can eaten without frosting, or then spruced up with a ganache or drizzled with chocolate...whatever!! Sturdy enough to go for a picnic, and can be fiddled around with to suit your tastebuds.
