Awesome cake. It wasn't hard to make, especially having a good solid countertop mixer for the batter. Extremely moist. It eats almost like a chocolate souffle. Thanks for sharing!

My 12 yr old daughter made this cake. It came out moist and a good looking cake. We put it into a square pan and had no problem with it coming out. We used 1/2 the sugar and found that enought . Next time we will put in melted chocolate. The cake looked beautifully chocolatey but did not have the rich chocolate taste. This is a keeper of a cake, light and moist. Better than a box cake!

Wow...this recipe makes an amazingly moist and fudgey cake. I used a thick white buttercreme frosting, it truly tasted like an oreo cookie. Thank you for sharing this wonderful recipe.

A very moist, almost fudgy cake which rose well. I would have preferred a stronger chocolatey flavour (perhaps more cocoa powder?) and was distressed to find that the warning about tin greasing was well founded. Despite greasing my tin very well, only half of the cake came out when inverted. I managed to press most of it back into place (not a thing of beauty) and used a very thick "snow scene" style of peppermint icing to disguise the broken top. If you have the same problem, don't panic! The cake is so dense that it packs together well so that, when you slice it, the reconstruction work isn't obvious; a good thick icing masks the cosmetic defects. Definitely worth a try if you're looking for an egg-free cake.
