Hot Chocolate Cake
Birthday Celebration

I served it up as my eldest daughter's birthday cake.  It was the perfect ending to her fall themed birthday celebration.

Cake with Ice Cream

I added a scoop of homemade pumpkin ice cream on top and it was a wonderful addition to this cake that does not call for frosting.  A dollop of whipped cream or a sprinkle of confectioner's sugar would work nicely as well.

If you are a fan of pumpkin spice mocha flavored coffee you will love this cake.  It would make a perfect Thanksgiving alternative or addition to your pumpkin pie.
