So today is...
my birthday. I'm 23. That's pretty good. But it's Passover and that just sucks. I hate not having a regular cake for my b-day.

2. Try this
Passover chocolate cake

Ingredients:

* 4 1-oz. squares semisweet chocolate, chopped
* 1/2 cup unsalted butter
* 3/4 cup sugar
* 1/2 cup cocoa
* 3 eggs, beaten
* 1/4 tsp. salt
* 1 tsp. vanilla

Preparation:
Preheat oven to 300 degrees F. Using solid shortening, grease an 8" cake pan and dust with cocoa; set aside.

In microwave, melt chocolate and butter in bowl on medium power, stirring once, until melted. Add sugar, 1/2 cup cocoa, eggs, and vanilla and mix well. Pour into prepared pan. Bake at 300 degrees F for 30 minutes. Cool for 5 minutes, then turn out onto a wire rack and cool completely. Serve with melted vanilla or chocolate ice cream, if desired, for a sauce. Serves 8

I made similar cakes a few times, delicious. Instead of the ice cream, serve with whipped cream (not cool whip...ugh!)

11. Happy Birthday to you!
Either make these yourself or have someone make them for you. They are very acceptable for Passover and many people make them for that reason. You'll forget all about cake. Guaranteed! :hi:

I dunno. Maybe it's because I'm autistic.

:P

17. LOL. Or maybe it's because you're just a smart kid?
Ever think of that?
