I have used the Ghirardelli chocolate cake boxed mix.
It is very good.
For frosting:
There is a recipe for ganache on the box--very easy:
(C. of melted chocolate chips
2/3 C. of heavy cream)
It makes for an easy but delicious quick chocolate cake when time is of the essence. I have decorated
with fresh raspberries on top, and it makes for a
special little cake.

@happycat It was a great cake. I've made it a few times and everyone loves it. Well, except DD. She hates peanut butter.
My DH loved Mom's cake and she was happy to indulge him.

Ok Good, You've tried the King Arthur chocolate cake mix.
Now the question is What Did you NOT like about it. That gives us better referance to what you want when we know exactly what you DON"T want. Never mind that it was a Mix. Was it To heavy or light a crumb? too sweet? Not chocolatey enough? Others who have made that same cake will be better able to help if you state exactly what differences youwould want from the known cake.

The perfect chocolate cake for one person is a horrible chocolate cake for another person. It all depends on what you like.

@Just Bling-Search Wellesley Fudge Cake. I think you'll be pleased with the recipe.

@patbz Have you tried the one from the Trellis Restaurant in Williamsburg? OH my! We had it there a million years ago and it was spectacular.
Marcel Desaulniers owned the place and I think made that recipe popular. He has a number of cookbooks and wow did he do desserts right! Complicated though to say the least!

This post was making me so hungry for Hershey's Perfectly Chocolate Cake so I made it last night and it did indeed come out "perfectly".
I made a simple chocolate ganache and it was great. My family was thrilled. This was so quick to put together that I don't want to use a chocolate box cake again.
