"I was a little dubious of this recipe after reading a few reviews stating that the cake turned out dry and flavorless, however, I could not be more pleased with the results. The cake is really moist and chocolaty without being too rich. I didn't use this particular buttercream frosting though but did use one of Ina's recipes for chocolate buttercream frosting. I made the cake for a birthday, it was a huge hit and I will definitely be making it again.
