Alan Jackson's Chocolate Cake And Frosting


Fantastic chocolate cake recipe! I found this advertised on a parkay box, bought the box of margarine and tried the recipe. Everyone who tasted it has asked for the recipe! It's easy and not too sweet. I use real butter for the margarine, but you can use either. Enjoy!!
