Quick: chocolate cake recipes?

babydontforget

DH's birthday is on Saturday. I've invited three friends for a dinner party. I think I'll do some kind of surf and turf for the meal, but I need help with the cake.

When I asked him if he had any requests, he told me that when he turned four his mom brought him to a shop to pick out a cake and he chose one that was all chocolate, very tall, with shavings on top. Then he said, "I also like lemon more than I realized."

Please help. I need recipes for chocolate cake, lemon cake, or a combo.

I just use the recipe on the back of a rich and moist chocoalte cake box.  Then take a thick bar of chocolate and grate flakes of chocolate onto the top of your favorite icing.

yummy

 That's what I usually do. 

If you don't care if it's bought and you have a Costco Membership. They have an amazing chocolate cake, shavings and all.  It is so good!

Ditto P. If you want it tall you can always buy several boxes of cake mix and lots of frosting.

Serve this with vanilla bean ice cream.  It's so easy and I promise you will thank me.
