The cake turned out dry and crumbly. I'm not sure what went wrong.

This cake was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still good. I think next time I'll use less sugar in the frosting.

This cake is so good! I'm not a huge fan of chocolate cake, but this one is an exception. It's not too sweet and the frosting is light and fluffy. Definitely a keeper.

Easy to follow recipe that yielded a delicious and decadent cake. I used dark chocolate chips instead of semi-sweet and it turned out perfect. Highly recommend!

Made this cake for my husband's birthday last weekend and it was a huge success! It's so moist and chocolatey, and the frosting is the perfect balance of sweetness and richness. Will definitely be making this again.
