Chocolate cake with (dark) chocolate icing!

@ElwoodBlues That’s amazing
@QueenOfZaun That image is snagged from some online baking source, but our family recipe looks a lot like that. If you're really interested I can easily paste in the icing recipe. What the heck, here it is:

AMAZING ICING

12 oz. very dark chocolate (like 80%)
2.5 cups confectioner's sugar
3/4 stick (6 Tbsp) butter (salted butter is OK)
1/2 cup warm milk
OPTIONAL: 1 tsp vanilla extract (good chocolate shouldn't need it)

Melt chocolate and butter together in microwave. Pour into mixer bowl, add sugar gradually, mix 2-4 minutes until creamy. The sugar may chill and stiffen the chocolate mix; add warm milk (& optional vanilla) to soften it.

Note: if the icing won't stick very well to the cake, then next time reduce butter.
@ElwoodBlues That looks sooo good !

Spinach lasagna, and some plant-based savory pies I've made.
