Buttermilk Brownie Cake

(Satan's Cake)

John calls this Satan's cake because it constantly tempts us to eat more and whenever I make it we devour it in a day, thus making us feel 5 pounds heavier. If you want a simple, MOIST and delicous dessert, give this a try. The kids LOVE it! Thank you Grandma Sparks for the recipe!
