The cake from "Matilda" that we all swooned over! Like The Trunchbull, I'm sure you'll agree that this is "the most scrumptious cake in the entire world."

Despite it’s truly impressive, bakery worthy appearance, this moist chocolate cake is super simple to make with just two bowls and a whisk. This Matilda cake is the perfect birthday cake or holiday dessert.
