    Although this was an easy and quick recipe to follow I (and my family were extremely disappointed with this cake! It did not have the texture that I have come to associate with pound cakes. It was very dry and "powdery" tasting. Would not make again.

    My husband and friend thought the cake was wonderful! It came out moist although it looks to be a little dry. We enjoyed it and I could see us making one again, especially if we are going to a potluck. I did use a tube pan and not a bundt pan for fear of it being dry, and I think it came out well.

    Wonderful flavor and density. Will definitely make again. After reading that come reviewers found it dry, I made it in a tube pan. I have trouble with bundt pans drying out cakes. I did prepare the pan with non-stick spray and sugar. Love the little crunch the sugar leaves.

    I made this recipe and it was delicious. I didn't use cake flour, but it was delicious anyhow. I used a 9 x 13 pan because I don't have the pan called for in the recipe, and it still turned out very well. I did make the mistake of topping the cake with a very rich sour cream - cream cheese topping and that was just too rich for this cake. I can't wait to try this recipe again and adding cranberries and walnuts. I also plan to add the mixed fruits and nuts usually found in fruitcake because I think that will work with this recipe.

    I thought this cake was very rich, moist, and chocolatey. It was very good, thanks Paula.

    Wow, if you're looking for a rich chocolate cake-you have found it in this pound cake! Very chocolate-y! Very heavy, dense..not moist. You definitely need something to help it go down..like a whipped cream or ice cream. Paula served a strawberry whipped cream & sliced strawberries when demonstrating it on her show so that's how I served it up. Other than that, it's good :

    Just ok. Not moist- crumbly and not a rich chocolate flavor. Too many calories for small flavor intensity

    This cake turned out wonderfully. It was moist and rich. The recipe was easy to follow. My family really loved it. It would be really good with a nice sauce. I will definitely make it again.

    Without first tasting myself, I baked and served this cake to some friends, and boy was it a HIT! They talked about it for days. I'm glad I tried it.
