I have looked at few oatmeal cakes and this one is different than most. It is loaded with chocolate chips and they give this cake a wonderful taste. It actually has a little heavier texture a mix between a brownie and a cake. It’s absolutely delicious. Since it doesn’t have a frosting, it’s not overly sweet which is nice. It’s a perfect cake to make for any occasion. If you haven’t tried this one.. give it a try!
