    I am sorry I am not and expert in baking but my questios is: how come a cake that has all purpose flour can come up right without baking powder?

    After reading the reviews, I decided to only make the frosting for my box cake mix. I followed the recipe exactly, it turned out perfect. Delicious! It made a lot of frosting, but it didn't go to waste.

    "Chocolatey" is what my son said, when I made him this cake for his birthday, he loves Beatty's recipe more. I love Ina's recipes. This one is very rich, and not as sweet as I expected. I used an 11x14 pan (about 32 minutes baking time, and cut the cake in half and used some of the frosting inside. I had tried something very similar to this at a bakery, the only difference is that the baker had used cherry pie filling in the center. That will be something I will try next time...hmmm maybe some liquer while I am at it!

    I bought all of the ingredients to make this cake....and it turned out horrible which I threw in the garbage! I used the frosting on a boxed cake instead. Turned out better.

    A very average chocolate cake (once you put the extra cup of buttermilk in--in case you haven't read already there is a typo, and you need an extra cup of buttermilk the cake, not extremely moist and not 'double fudge' just chocolate cake. Having said that, it was still a fine chocolate cake, with no problems.

    I love Ina, long time fan. Due to the known but uncorrected typo regarding the buttermilk measurement, I now have a pile of chocolate saw dust to present to my chocolate loving boyfriend for his BDay. Shame on someone for not correcting a known error.

    Just to let you know. The choclate must be cooled completly because when I made it, the cake and frosting was incredible!! And I'm sure many of you know now, but it has to be 1 1/2 cup, not the 1/2 cup of buttercream.

    Flavor: It was choclatly and delicious! I enjoyed the soft moist texuture of the cake.
    How it Kept: It went bad in a couple of days. Well, it tasted good, it was just that the cake became stale. Quickly. But that could have been my own fault.
    Additons: Just like coconut cake, I threw on small choclate wavers I found at the grocery store around it, which added an even better texture.
    Overall: I thought it was an excellent cake, with one or two things not said or mistakes on the card that made it bad.
