Just wanted to thank you for your lovely recipes!! I made your chocolate cupcakes and they turned out DELICIOUS so I'm super excited to try this chocolate cake. I love that you don't use exorbitant amounts of sugar and butter in your recipes yet they still turn out super decadent and tasty! Thanks once again!

Just tried this last night and it was the most heavenly deliciousness ever! I don’t usually bake cakes but my husband wanted to eat chocolate cake and this seemed like an easy enough recipe to make. Beginners should definitely try this. It was so quick, simple and fuss-free! I used my stand mixer and added whole milk instead of buttermilk and it came out perfect, if that helps anyone :)

I made this cake yesterday for mother's day and surprised my mom at midnight, we celebrated together and literally, this cake turned out so beautifully and it was so tasty that my mom was asking me did I order it from somewhere then I told her that I made it, she was really very happy, everyone in my family loved it, it's just that a bit of egg smell was there so if u want to avoid it u may add some melted chocolate like dairy milk into it, 1 big bar of dairy milk will do, it will taste nice also and the smell will also not come as per me, but on the whole the taste was on point, thanks for the recipe!❤

my daughter made this today and it was delicious! Thank you!

Tried this recipe to the dot on father's Day (had to make buttermilk with milk and vinegar as mentioned and I didn't have baking soda so I used twice the amount of baking powder and reduced the quantity of salt in the recipe) and it turned out soo sooo good!!! I could have eaten the whole huge cake on my own but everyone loved it soo much. It's fast, easy and absolutely delicious ❤️

( I topped it with an easy chocolate ganache made with dark baking chocolate and cream at 2:1 ratio)

Just made the recipe as-is and it is, indeed, very moist and spongy with a dense crumb structure, almost like a cake with pudding mixed into the batter. It’s not exactly what I was looking for, but for those who like a moist, spongy cake, this is a very good recipe. I might suggest adding more than 1/4 cup cocoa powder though, to get a more chocolatey flavor.

I made it and it taste so delicious. Taste like a store bought cake…so yummyy 😋😋

[MrsQueenWatandost]

It's my first time to bake using this recipe and my husband loved it. Though I did not cut off the sugar to 1 1/2 instead of two cups coz I thought it would be too sweet. But it was still very sweet. Next time I will use 1 cup only. Thank you

[nettysfootprints]

Oh my I followed the exact recipe with just a cup of sugar instead of 2 and it turned out so beautiful😍 the kids loved it! Thank you so much ❤️

During this virus lockdown this has been my favourite thing I’ve made. After several dry cakes I’m so pleased that 4 days after baking it I’ve just had another slice and it’s still moist and delicious!!! Thank you

Super easy to make and delicious. I substituted whole milk for buttermilk and also 1 cup hot coffee for the water portion..Starbucks French Roast. This, as it has already been noted, is a ninja move. Yes Chef!
