"My family begs for this recipe on special occasions. But here are the tricks I have learned from the reviews and my own little experiments: DO NOT USE cake flour. All purpose works best. Bake longer, cool longer. If your cake falls apart slightly, use your frosting as the glue. I followed a recipe in one of the reviews "where your wife was the genius" and made a whipped cream frosting and folded the featured frosting into that. I also sprinkled that with bit of Chambord to give the cake a kick of the raspberry. Then I tried to do "shavings" but my hands may have melted the chocolate a little too much to make it work. Thus, I chopped that part too with a large knife. All in all, I owe my success to this recipe to the reviews, Tyler and that genius wife of one writer."
