    Wow! I didn't expect it to be this good. Obviously, it exceed my expectations. I didn't even use sugar. I used Splenda instead. Also, I did not frost the cake. It came out chocolatey and moist and full of flavor. Even my husband who is a chocoholic loved it. I will make it again. I did not, however, make the frosting because I figured it was not necessary as this was supposed to be a healthier treat.

    I've made this a few times over the years, but I've never made it with the frosting. I'm a big cake-for-breakfast fan, so I eat it for breakfast and it goes great with coffee or hot chocolate.

    I made this with Whole Wheat Flour since I couldn't find the pastry flour and Greek Yogurt with a splash of water instead of the reg yogurt then doubled the powdered sugar in the frosting and it got rave reviews at the party! No one knew it was actually pretty guiltless! Next time I'll try the WW Pastry Flour since I just ordered it on Amazon and see how it turns out. Thanks Ellie for another great guiltless recipe!!!

    I did not like the frosting so I made my own. That being said, the cake is good if you want something chocolate without the guilt. It tastes good, But it cannot compare to 'real' chocolate cake. You know the kind. Your eyes close when it hits your tongue.

    This cake will SHOCK you. It's delicious. I only gave it four stars though because I wasn't crazy about the frosting, although I have to admit it tasted better after the cake was refrigerated overnight. Next time I might make the cake and use a layer of whipped cream. Sure this will up the calorie count, but it will still be fresh and natural, which are my top two priorities. Ellie, you rock!

    My husband and I love dark chocolate, coffee, and cake. That being said, this cake was not good. It smelled fantastic, looked great, but lacked any substantial flavor. I've tried several of Ellie's recipes and they've been great, but this one was a disappointment.

    I made this cake last night because I was really craving some chocolate without all the guilt and it totally satisfied my craving without busting my diet... However, I made a few minor adjustments... I only used 1 cup nonfat yogurt and I used one large mashed banana... The slight hint of banana made this cake totally amazing! Instead of using sugar in the cake I used 1/4 cup plus two tablespoons splenda for baking... I also used splenda for baking in the frosting too... And I omitted the oil from the recipe... My boyfriend even liked it too! Now keep in mind that it is a healthier cake... It is not going to taste like the real thing dosed in butter and shortening, but for a healthier version it is totally marvelous.
