Dessert of the Day: Chocolate Cake (again)

Around Christmas time there is always an excess of sweets leftover in our pantry which is always bad news for me.  Because of this, I haven't done a lot of baking - just a lot of munching on leftover goodies.  Phil and I did however get invited to a friend's house for dinner on New Year's day so I made this cake again to bring over.  This time I made the Peanut Butter glaze, which was delicious and the perfect pairing to this type of cake (regular icing was WAY too much).  The feedback I got the next day was that the teenagers of the group didn't think the cake was sweet enough.  So I suppose if you don't have an overactive sweet tooth (or teeth) this recipe is perfect.  I must say that I still think it's very chocolatey and yummerific.  The fact it's not overly sweet was actually part of my decision for making it at this time of year.  A must try for sure.
