To be honest with you, I didn't make this cake from scratch. I was missing ingredients and time. But WOW was it good.

Ingredients

Devils Food Cake Mix

( If you feel like making a cake homemade I highly recommend this one. )

Deep Dark Chocolate Cake

Ingredients:

2 cups sugar
1-3/4 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup HERSHEY'S Cocoa or HERSHEY'S SPECIAL DARK Cocoa
1-1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1-1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
2 eggs
1 cup milk
1/2 cup vegetable oil
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup boiling water

Directions:
1. Heat oven to 350°F. Grease and flour two 9-inch round pans or one 13x9x2-inch baking pan.

2. Stir together sugar, flour, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda and salt in large bowl. Add eggs, milk, oil and vanilla; beat on medium speed of electric mixer 2 minutes. Stir in boiling water (batter will be thin). Pour batter into prepared pans.

3. Bake 30 to 35 minutes for round pans, 35 to 40 minutes for rectangular pan or until wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool 10 minutes; remove from pans to wire racks. Cool completely. (Cake may be left in rectangular pan, if desired.)

Two pints of sliced strawberries

1 jar of Nutella ( one and a half jars if you are feeling frisky, which I was)

Bake cake to box specifications. Allow to cool. Spread thin layer of nutella on first cake, top with sliced strawberries. Top with second cake, Frost completly- decorate with the rest of the strawberries.

I would top this with whipped cream.
