You can use any type of frosting you like, but I recommend using a chocolate frosting for this recipe.
Use a thin layer of chocolate frosting between the layers and then a thicker layer of chocolate frosting on top.
350 degrees Fahrenheit
Bake the cake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
