Modified the recipe substantially. Used twice the amount of vinegar and vanilla, reduced the flour by half a cup and doubled the cocoa powder. Subbed oil for melted butter and used 2 cups of hot milk and 1 cup hot water. Also added 2 tablespoons of espresso powder and subbed 1 cup of light brown sugar for one of the granulated cups. The flavor was deep and chocolaty, texture was very dense, almost rubbery due to the lack of egg in the recipe but that’s fine since the chocolate flavor was so rich and this texture allowed for the shape of the cake in the intricate Nordic ware mold to look sharp.

I made this cake for my husband to take to work for Valentine’s Day. Several people told him how much they enjoyed it. I frosted it with ganache made with bittersweet chocolate chips. I used the anniversary bundt pan and applied cooking spray with flour and the cake stuck a little bit in a couple of spots. It wasn’t noticeable, especially after I applied the ganache. I will make this cake again.

Agree with Peggy – no depth of flavor, flat and pretty blah. Also disappointed.

Moist, easy to make cake. But no flavor. There is no depth of flavor in this cake. Disappointed

Made exactly as the recipe says. Possibly the best chocolate cake I have had. I used white vinager and the bavaria pan.
