Chocolate Cake with Dobash Frosting image

A very moist and light chocolate cake covered in a smooth, pudding like chocolate dobash. A family favorite, this cake looks sweet and rich but you'd be surprised at how light it is. Being a diabetic now, I substitute every ingredient I can get that is sugar free such as the pudding, diet lemon-lime soda, and low sugar or sugar...
