I don't know what the official name is for the genre of dessert I refer to as "wet cake." What I do know is I've never met a piece of rum cake, tiramisu or tres leches I didn't like.
When I first saw the enticingly named recipe for "Sicilian love cake" in "Enough Already: Learning to Love the Way I Am Today" by Valerie Bertinelli, I had no idea what a moist, magical chocolate creation I had come across. I just knew it began with a box mix, which is always a fine place to start.
