    Hey Tyler,

    Your cake sucks. It falls in the middle, the frosting does not come together and is too sweet, and the whole thing turns into a gooey sewage when completed. Thankfully my guests were too polite to complain. Thanks for a ruined evening.

    If you love chocolate cake, this is the one to make!!! Just be sure to use 2 cake pans cause it makes a lot of batter and will spill over if you use a 9x13 pan. The cake is fabulous!!! The icing is TOO sweet. Next time I am going to cut it down to 1 1/2cup powdered sugar in the buttercream. Can't eat it otherwise.

    Kids comments were it was the best chocolate cake they've ever had. No doubt it was delicious. Don't forget the parchment paper. I did so it wasn't a visual beauty (cake stuck some to the pans. But that didn't bother anyone. I'd also agree more time might help.

    The cake was tasty, but 40 minutes wasn't long enough more my cake to cool. The frosting melted all over leaving a gooey, yet still tasty mess.

    This is the best chocolate cake I have ever tasted better yet, made myself. The first time I made this cake it was eaten that night I had to make another cake the following day just to have a whole slice.

    This cake is good but with a name of "Gooey, Decadent Chocolate Cake" I expected a little more chocolatey. It is improved with the frosting although I added a 1/4 cup of cocoa to the frosting. I agree with others that it falls slightly in the middle and the cake puffed up over the edge of the pan (making it a bit more difficult to remove. Also, don't skip the part of lining the bottom of the pan with parchment. I was out of parchment so greased and floured the pan instead and that was not enough!

    Wow! I know this wasn't advertised as a Devil's Food Cake, but mine came out slightly red in color, extravagantly light and airy with rich chocolate flavor. My husband grew up eating only packaged foods, so he very much favors boxed cakes over homemade. This cake has won him over for it's texture and flavor. BRAVO to Tyler for creating the perfect way to cheat those who will only eat boxed:
