Cake:

3 cups all purpose unbleached white flour

Sift all the dry ingredients into a large bowl. Set aside. Blend all the wet ingredients together and fold into the dry.

Pour into a lined 8" round cake pan. Bake for 40 to 50 minutes or until a stick inserted into the center comes out clean. Remove from the oven and place on a cooling rack to cool completely.

Bring heavy cream in a saucepan on medium heat to simmer (don't boil). Pour over chocolate chunks and whisk until chocolate mixture is smooth and shiny. Pour over the cake. Decorate with fresh berries.
