I am always in search of a wonderful chocolate cake. A great weekend, to me, involves baking AND eating one. My favorite moment is hearing that special sound the knife makes cutting into the totally freshly made cake--total satisfaction!
This cake, with caramel filling was in Bon Appetit September issue. Here's a link to the recipe:

I remember lots of talk on ST about the salty caramels that have been all the rage so I thought I would try this cake. I was a bit too timid with the salt, putting a small pinch, instead of a generous one, between each layer, so the finished cake didn't have a really salt kick but it was really rich and delicious.
here's mine:

I took a quarter of it to neighbors. Whatever is left after today, I have to take to school tomorrow so I don't eat it all week.

That cake looks and sounds FABULOUS. I'm a huge sucker for salted caramel anything (and I'm pretty generous with salt ;) ), so am printing the recipe right now! YUM.
Thanks for sharing!
