We covered Best Places to Get Chocolate Cake in the Hudson Valley last year, and we mentioned how diners are a popular spot for the tasty desert. I also raved about the 4 layer chocolate cake that my mom would make when I was growing up with German and semi sweet chocolate between each layer, and frosted with cool whip and curls of chocolate on top. That cake was amazing!

We posed the question to the Hudson Valley as to where the best go-to place was to get a good chocolate cake and have compiled a top 5 list.
