Since this is about cakes, can any one tell me about the genoise cakes that I've seen made a few times on the TV show Chopped?
The judges are always so impressed that anyone would attempt a genoise cake.
Are they hard, is it something that one has to master, I know nothing of this kind of cake, help please if you can.............. |
If you like chocolate cake you should give this very old depression era cake a try...

I came across this recipe a while back and it is very similar to a cake that my Gram used to throw together for us kids.
I used this recipe to make this ice cream cake for my son's birthday.
