She and my oldest daughter have been best friends since they were 4. We invited some of the other neighbors over to help celebrate Hannah’s birthday and eat all the cake. You can always tell how good this cake is by all the oohing and aahing that comes from the guests as they eat this chocolate cake! I don’t often make chocolate cake for myself.
