One of the challenges of birthdays during Purtassi is finding an eggless cake recipe that works. This eggless chocolate cake is a predecessor to the last cake I made about a month ago, in preparation for my sons birthday. I opted for a sheet cake instead of layer cake because of the theme of this years birthday, Pirates.  I also love sheet cakes because they are so easy to make. A thin cake layer smothered in frosting. Cover with an icing sugar or chocolate ganache layer in equal or double thickness for maximum delectability.
