I have to say I was very disappointed. The cake was dry. It was not over cooked, the custard need better instructions.

This is a very acceptable moist chocolate cake. There have been complaints about it being dry so may I offer a few hints: you should use butter and whole milk and when you beat the egg whites make sure they are not dry - just rounded peaks. I think this will make a difference. I realize how frustrating it is to have a cake come out dry, but this one really is not

It was a waste of time and ingredients and it was very dry! Not what I was expecting at all.

Very disappointing. I was expecting a custard like cake. This cake was dry and very much like a boxed cake mix. I felt like crying after the taste test. What a waste of my time and ingredients. Chocolate frosting helped a bit but would never consider making this cake again.
