I use a recipe from an old bake off...the original was lost in a move so I can't give credit. We have never gotten sick but it would not be approved these days I am sure!
3/4 cup of soft butter creamed well with 1 1/2 cups 10x sugar. Add 1 tsp vanilla and blend. Melt 1 bag of chocolate chips and COOL....then add to creamed mixture blending well. Add 3 eggs /one at a time beating 5 minutes after each egg is added.
You probably could use the homogenized eggs. This is my family's favorite and sets up firm. A batch and a half does a 3 layer cake from 2 mixes.
