- Combine flour, cocoa, baking soda and salt in medium bowl. Gradually add dry ingredients to creamed mixture, beating until smooth.
- Pour batter into prepared pan. Fold foil over batter to cover batter completely; crimp foil, leaving head space for cake as it rises.
- Bake 1 hour and 15 minutes or until toothpick inserted into center comes out clean. Cool 10 minutes on wire rack. Open foil and lift cake from pan. Cool completely.
- Slice cake into 8 (1-inch thick) slices. Serve with strawberries, sliced bananas, whipped topping, nuts and drizzle of chocolate syrup.
