This is the best mud cake that I have ever tasted. It has a wonderful texture; it is not too dry, nor is it too gooey. I first noticed Mississipi mud cakes in a certain cookbook, which I used as a guideline, and made my own recipe. It is a definite favourite amongst my family, relatives and friends.
