    Categories: Cakes, Chocolate, Desserts
    Yield: 1 Cake

    1 Box chocolate cake mix
    - (2 layers)
    8 oz Baker's German sweet
    - chocolate (2 pkg)
    3/4 c Butter; softened
    1/2 c Almonds; toasted, chopped
    8 oz Cool Whip non-dairy whipped
    - topping; thawed

    Prepare cake mix as directed on package. Bake in two greased and
    floured 9" round layer pans. Cool. Split layers horizontally. Melt
    1-1/2 packages of the chocolate in a saucepan over low heat. Cool,
    then beat in butter. Add almonds. Make chocolate curls from remaining
    chocolate. Spread one cake layer with half the chocolate mixture; top
    with second layer and spread with half the whipped topping. Repeat
    layers; garnish with chocolate curls. Chill an hour before serving.

    Chris' comments:

    Brand names were given in the original recipe, which is from Kraft
    Foods' Baker's German's Sweet Chocolate dessert pamphlet. The whipped
    topping can probably be substituted, but I would not recommend
    substituting the chocolate, because it has its own unique flavor.
