Absolutely delicious!! Didn't change a thing in the recipe ingredients, only change I made was to throw all ingredients at once in my kitchen aid mixer and mixed for the 3 minutes as suggested in the directions. Baked beautifully, oh and I did use pam spray for baking, worked perfectly. Thanks for this wonderful recipe, will be making this a lot. Can't wait to try it with some other flavor extracts as some other viewers have mentioned!! -Denece

Pretty good. Made for a family dinner and got several nice comments. I thought there wasn't much falvor but really moist and dense. I will probably make again.

This recipe is perfection. I served it at my restaurant and it was a hit! The only thing i did different was I used milk instead of buttermilk (didnt have any any on hand) and added 1 Tbsp of Apple Cider Vinegar to make a sweet buttermilk. Very Very Tasty!

I loved this cake. I did it in several pastel colors in a bundt pan for Easter and then the icing in another color. I would use a wide stick ( I used a corn dog skewer) to make a ton of holes. Looked festive and was a hit!

The sauce makes a sweet glaze, keeping the cake moist. It has a lovely buttery flavor that is sweet but not overdone. The batter is very thick and I was worried it wouldn't come out right, but it looked and tasted wonderful!!

I thought it was so-so, but my other half thought it was the best cake ever. I will make it again.

My family loves this cake. I serve it with strawberries and cream. It has earned a place in my family cookbook.

Fantastic cake!! this is great for those who are not huge chocolate fans and for those who just love cake =) I made the recipe as listed and it came out dashingly. it was moist and I swear it tasted even better after a few days. although it is yummy w/o topping I will sometimes use a simple brown strudel topping to "dress" it up a bit. A must try for the novice OR experienced baker. ***Side Note***. If you're using a bundt pan for best results prepare it properly via butter spray with the flour already in it then use a pastry brush to spread it in the Pan envenly to avoid "puddles" of spray and soggy spots on your cake. HAppy baking

Wonderful Easy Recipe. Looks Picture Perfect. As Others Reviewed I Used Bakers Joy Spray To Prime My Bundt Pan, And I Had No Problems, Just Popped Right Out. And I Also Used 3 Tablespoons Of Caption Morgan Rum, Instead Of 3 Tablespoons Of Water. Thank You For From Florida!!
