I tried the cake in the pan and it was and easy to do. I was low on vegetable oil and added melted margarine.

I’d like to replace the cocoa powder with lemon juice for a twist on the actual recipe and possibly a 1/2 cup os sugar.

Well, I’ll find out soon enuf — I enjoy testing recipes and adulterating some of the items.
