I made this cake and it turned out so great. I made it for my boyfriend and his 5 roommates and it was gone quickly. I didn't have vinegar so I didn't put that in, but I'm not sure it made that much of a difference. SO good.

I thought this cake needs more chocolate and maybe a teaspoon more of vanilla. But the frosting was very good. By the time the middle of the cake was done the sides were really dry.

I followed the recipe exactly but found this cake to be quite heavy (more like a brownie) and it had very little flavor. I gave three stars because the frosting was really good. Instead of milk i used hot strong coffee for mocha frosting.

The name says it all. This was really the best chocolate cake! The cake turned out perfectly moist and the frosting...absolutely delicious! My dad said it was the best chocolate cake he's tasted! AND the directions were easy to follow! If you want the best, try this recipe!

Ok this cake was absolutely disgusting!!! All you can taste is the shortening. IT WASN'T EDIBLE!!! However, I gave it one star because the frosting was out of this world. I would recommend using another cake recipe and using the frosting in this recipe.

My family loved this cake! I am making it for the second time for another family dinner tonight. I used unsalted butter, so I added a little salt to the recipe. We thought it was very moist and flavorful.

This was very good! I did not think the overall appearance was very good though. The frosting tasted great, but it looked very thick and was very hard to spread. It was a big hit with my grandparents who came to visit and my family, I just was not as impressed with the looks of it. Thanks for the recipe I'm sure I'll use it again.

This was a great cake! The batter looks very runny but don't add any flour! The frosting was great too...fudgy!

My son did this for a cooking class project. What a huge disappointment it was. It would not come out of the pan (note: it says to only grease the pan, not flour). It was very crumbly and dry. It had to be cooked longer than it said to have the middle done. The frosting was okay, didn't hardly cover the cake. My husband's comment was it seemed to be missing something. I watched my son make this and he didn't leave anything out. I would never make this again.

Very moist and fudgy. The icing took a long time to set. I will definately make this again.

Sorry to say that this cake looked good but barely tasted like chocolate. It wasn't awful but not great either. My guess is that it needs a lot of actual chocolate in the recipe. It was pretty but very bland.
