I made this cake to take to our block party this evening, and it was a hit! I did add a little something to it, only because I made a bundt cake...this cake is awesome just as is. I added a cream cheese and chocolate chip filling to the center of the bundt cake. People kept commenting on how moist this cake was. I drizzled the cake with milk chocolate and white chocolate. Made a beautiful cake! Thanks for sharing.

OMG this cake is fabulous. I love chocolate. I mean love, love, love chocolate. I followed the recipe, in addition I added a box of instant chocolate pudding and a full cup of semi sweet chocolate chips. The cake was very sweet, moist and absolutely delicious. I will for sure make this again and again and again. If you love chocolate, you will find this cake irrisitable.

I've made this cake twice now, and I think it's the only chocolate cake recipe I'm ever going to use. The coffee makes it so dark and rich. It's so easy too!

i love to bake more than cooking and i'm sure i made this right. it didn't have so much flavor and it tasted watery. i'm not a great baker so i can't recommend what to do to make it better. dx

This chocolate cake was great. It came out very moist. I actually divided the batter into two portions and baked them separately because it didn't fit into my baking tin. It came out as a perfect layer cake. Only comment is that it took about 50 minutes for each cake to cook rather than the recommended 25-35 min. but this might be due to my oven.

The cake turned out like a stone... It is really dense... and not very flavorful at all... Skip this one.

You can't go wrong when you have a really easy recipe with great results. I followed the recipe exactly and was extremely happy with it - no extra salt was required. I used the "Whipped Cream Cream Cheese Frosting" recipe from this site along with a raspberry filling between layers and on top. Everyone commented on how moist the cake was. I thought I would need less time due to putting it in rounds - but it was in for 32 minutes. This is a great recipe. I am trying to figure out the next time I can make it!

Excellent made as directed and great!

I dare not make anything different for my hubby. Best chocolate cake ever. Very moist and don't let the thinnest of the batter fool you. That makes it the best. I like to use just a vanilla frosting on it as that is what DH likes. Its hard not to eat this if you are dieting. The best ever.

This recipe was really easy to make, pretty much as easy as a box cake. I did make some alterations that had been suggested in previous reviews. I added 3/4 tsp salt. I also used 1/4 butter instead of the oil because the butter just sounded more appealing. I learned as I was adding the ingredients that I was low on white flour so in a pinch I had to substitute 3/4 cup of whole wheat flour. You can't even taste the difference. I made cupcakes with this. The cake has a great texture and consistancy when baked. It's just missing somthing in the flavor department, it needs more chocolate flavor. But it still is good and I would recommend trying this recipe yourself.

So my family and I tried this last night. It was wonderful. Then the men working on my house today ate like half of it. It's a delicious cake. I will be making it again...especially when I want people to think I can bake ;)

this is a very good chocolate cake recipe its simple and easy to follow also if u use chocolate ganauche as icing its even more perfect. I bake d this cake twice for family and friends and they loved it.

This was delicious, I was really dubious because of the coffee as I hate coffee, but it has such a chocolatey flavour that I couldn't taste the coffee. I madei t for my son's birthday party as a mudslide cake with bugs on it, and it was a hit! Definately will make this again.

This is great! I made it in two round pans for a layer cake... I didn't use coffe, but just another cup of milk... I frosted it with a condensed milk frosting... it's divine! But definitely add some salt to balance out the flavors!

This cake is pretty good for a homemade cake. I used half all-purpose flour and half cake flour, which gave it a finer texture. My son liked the cake better than the frosting, but I liked them together a lot.

This was so good. The coffee was noticeable (and I LOVE coffee) but not overpowering so even my husband and kids liked it (not coffee drinkers). I made a cream cheese frosting to go with it because there was enough chocolate for my taste just with the cake. I tried cooking it in two 9" p-ans and even though I didn't use all of the batter, one pan overflowed. SO I don't recommend doing that unless yours have high sides. I'll be buying new pans so I can make this again, next time without the oven clean up.

Great recipe! My friend asked me if I make my own cocoa, as in pick the cocoa pods and dry them and grind them...you get the point! To those who found this bland, remember that your chocolate cake is only as good as your chocolate is. So if you're using low quality powder cocoa your cake'll most likely be bland.

great cake. easy to make. thanks!
