We braved the airplane with our two kiddos yesterday and are over here visiting grandparents. My sweet mother-in-law always tries to trick me into eating sweets, and this time she did it. Ladies and gentlemen, 6 minute chocolate cake recipe is where its all at.
I am not much of a sweet tooth but my mother-in-law made these amazing cupcakes, they are not too sweet but are still rich and chocolatey. I went to inquire about the recipe and she went on to tell me that these delicious beauties only take 6 minutes to whip up and are egg and dairy free! TRUST ME you will love them.
And the icing will have you licking your fingers!!
And clearly I’m not the only fan!!
Get you pen and pans ready, here is the recipe!!

Nothing like a classic chocolate cake. This recipe sounds similar to the Hershey’s recipe which I love!
