Have you tried my Magic custard cake yet from this post? How about my Chocolate version? Well, this is third version, equally delish! A reader on my first post had suggested strawberries on top for some added sweetness. I thought that was genius. I decided to macerate the berries to make them extra wonderful and it worked wonders! This cake is perfect with a dusting of powdered sugar and some coffee! Best part? It realllllly is magic! You are using one batter yet this cake turns out with 3 very different layers. You have to make it and eat it to believe it!! Such a fun cake to make!
