Made it for a baby shower, where the mother was severely allergic to milk. She loved it!

Cake was easy to make but a little heavy on the chocolate, if that's possible! The crowd seemed to like it.

This was really good. I only had 1 cup of white flour left so I used that plus 1.25 cups of whole wheat flour. And instead of making it in a 9 x 13 pan, I used two round 9" pans. In between the layers I put Cool Whip Lite. And served with more of the cool whip. The result was that it looked really pretty and it tasted very similar to a Tastykake chocolate creamie.

very moist! i put in raspberry instead of cherry, as more of the people liked raspberry. i didn't have powdered cocoa so i ended up substituting mini chocolate chips. the chips sank to where the pie filling is, but it still turned out great. though the baking time for me was actually 1 hour 25 minutes. i lined the pan with wax paper, and i had an easy time getting the cake out.

Eh - it was ok - the cake was pretty dry and not that flavorful. The cherry topping was good...not something I'll make again.

This was so good and easy to make. I will totally be making this again. I was surprised at how chocolaty it tasted. It was also fun to watch the chemical reaction with the vinegar and baking soda. It would be something kids would like to watch and help with.

My husband and I were not particularly happy with the overall taste of this cake. There was a large portion of the cake left over that I ended up having to throw away. I was sort of excited to try the recipe, since it was a healthier option from other recipes. However, I will not be making this cake again.

I used a recipe I have used for years called Amazon Chocolate Cake which is very similar to this one. I lined the greased pan with parchment, which I didn't grease. It helped to get the cake out. I thought that 1 can of filling didn't have as many cherries as i would have liked and the "sauce" was absorbed by the cake as it cooled. Still, my company thought it was a success.
