Moist, and chocolaty. Just the way a chocolate cake should be.

This cake is extremely fudgy. I made it into two 8" layers (to make two separate desserts). I served one immediately and wrapped the other (plastic wrap, foil, and ziploc bag) and froze it. Both were delicious served with just a light sprinkling of confectioners' sugar.

I followed the recipe exactly to make this cake. I have a lot of experience making cakes and found that it had a good chocolate taste, but also had a slightly greasy taste and was on the tough side which are not good characteristics of a good pound cake.

I love this pound cake! It's dense, moist, chocolatey... and the instant coffee was a nice enhancer. Maybe next time I'll put in even more for a java cake. ;) Definitely making again.

I made this cake for a bbq recently and it went down a treat. I had to make another one though, as there was none left for my daughter. A firm family favourite.

Super moist, very good. We used to buy personal-sized cakes from a local Bundt Cake store, and this recipe is actually better. My husband even loves it (and he's a hard sell).

If I could give this cake SIX stars, I would! It is wonderful. The texture reminds me of chocolate cheesecake. It is easy to make, and it's inexpensive, too.

YUM!! I was looking for a really dense, chocolatey cake to use for a birthday cake when I came upon this recipe. I baked it for about an hour in 2-9" round pans and used the Fluffy Peanut Butter Frosting recipe on this site. All I can say was that it turned out absolutely amazing. Sooo so awesome, and so rich you only honestly need the smallest of slices and a big glass of milk to be in paradise. Holy cow this was incredible. My search for the perfect chocolate cake recipe is over...if only I can stop thinking of the calorie content!;)

This cake is dense but moist (it is a pound cake after all); if I could give it 4&1/2 stars I would. It did accomplish my main objective: to impress my boyfriend's mother, who I was meeting for the first time, as she's a chocolate-lover. However, for my taste the chocolate flavor was a little too plain. I would probably make this again but next time I'd follow the recipe a little less closely and try adding some kahlua and/or almond extract as a few of the others have suggested. A bit of thin raspberry sauce drizzled over it did make it more interesting. As a final consideration, with almost 400 calories per serving, while I probably will make this cake again sometime in the future it is definately a cake for rare occasions and not something I'd want to make too often.

This is just too dense, like a brick. Make sure to serve it with lots of ice cream. This is like a thick, dense brownie.

I used splenda in this cake but I don't think it worked very well. The cake has the density of a brick and a very dry brownie like texture. Either Spelnda doesn't bake like sugar, or this is still a very heavy cake. Perhaps I'll try it with regular sugar to see if I get the same result.

Hands down one of the tastiest pound cake recipes I have ever made. I did make one slight adjustment -- I replaced 4 oz of butter with an equal amount of cream cheese. At the 60 minute point, the cake needed more time, so I turned the oven off and let it sit for 15 more minutes. Perfect!

This cake is fabulous!! I didn't change a thing in the recipe. The cake is so soft and dense. I put chocolate frosting for extra chocolate flavour for my chocoholic friend on her birthday. I will definitely make it again. Thank you for the superb recipe!!

This is to die for. In a month, I baked it at least for 6 occasions. People want recipe and make me bake more! Mine only took about 45 minutes to bake however. The cake has dense chocolate taste. I tried 1 teaspoon instant coffee in Bailey Irish Cream instead of water and use 3 teaspoons vanilla extract and half a vanilla bean. Also I use 1 cup milk and 1 tablespoon vinegar instead of buttermilk. It smells as delicious as it tastes. The cake is good by itself but it also works well with raspberry glaze...I stir no-sugar-added raspberry jam with some water, a teaspoon corn maize and gelatin over low heat and let cool a bit before spreading on top. The cake is very good after one night in a refridgerator but some of my friends love it reheated in microwave as well...they said it's moist and delicious. I'm baking it again and again for sure.

If you are a chocolate cake lover, then this cake is for you. It does get better ( if possible) after a couple of days, if you can keep it around that long. I did not change a thing in this recipe and dusted the cooled cake with icing sugar. The cake is so awesome that it does not need to be frosted. Thanks so much Shelley.

Very good. The only things I did different was to substitute the 1/4 c. hot water for 1/4 c. warm Maraschino juice and add 2 cups of halved Maraschinos. I also used another reviewer's recommendation of using almond extract instead of the vanilla. This didn't last the day in our house. Both my husband and teenagers absolutely loved it!!!
