From: "Hacklaender, Elaine" <EHacklaend@...> Date: Fri, 06 Aug 93 08:04:00 PDT This is in response to a request by someone for a rich, moist chocolate cake. I think this recipe goes beyond that! This recipe is (shamelessly) stolen from _The Seven Chocolate Sins_ by Ruth Moorman and Lalla Williams.

This book is guaranteed to satisfy (if not cure) any chocoholic.

Sheer Perfidy [ per-fi-dy: n., deliberate breach of faith, treachery ] Melt candy in double boiler. In separate bowl, cream butter and sugar. Add eggs one at a time and mix well. Sift flour and soda together. Add, alternating with buttermilk, syrup and candy. Beat well. Add nuts, vanilla and coffee. Bake in greased tube pan 1½ hours at 350.
