My recipe is for a 13" x 9" pan, so probably 1/2 a bag would be enough for a 8" pan. Oh, one more thing. My recipe is for a 13″ x 9″ pan, so probably 1/2 a bag would be enough for a 8″ pan.

I add a bag of chocolate chips (or whatever flavor you feel like trying) 5 minutes after cooling the cake. They melt and then you spread them around. They harden and make it even more interesting! It's great without it, though. Thanks! I’ve made this cake many times and tend to lose the recipe, so I’m glad I found yours.

This is the second time I've made it and both times it turned out great. My Mom calls this a crazy chocolate cake. We've had it a lot growing up since it's so inexpensive to make. I made some changes to the basics. I added a tbsp of instant coffee, used balsamic vinegar instead of cider vinegar and added 1/2 cup of Skor bits. So good!

He has a milk and soy allergy and our older daughter is allergic to milk and egg. The fact that this is free of all 3 and has such great reviews is amazing! I can't wait to try it! It is in the oven right now! I am making this cake as a trial run for my son’s first birthday in 3 weeks. He has a milk and soy allergy and our older daughter is allergic to milk and egg.

I can't even believe it's from scratch. I'm so excited! In the Philippines, there is a major baked goods company that has a similar tasting cake that I've always adored. Now, I can make it at home and for my vegetarian friend! The only ingredient I needed was baking soda because I threw away the old box. (I haven't baked in a while.) I can't thank you enough! :) 0.0 I just made a Chantilly trifle using this cake… and it is THE BEST cake I’ve ever made! I can’t even believe it’s from scratch. I’m so excited!

I am so excited. My son has a dairy allergy, daughter has a soy/egg/dairy allergy and I am cutting them out because I am still nursing her. So excited to have an option for her first birthday cake that we can all enjoy! :) Thanks. I’ve got this cake in the oven now! I am so excited.

Cant wait to see what it taste like. Should be interesting baking without eggs and adding vinegar. Thanks for this recipe, I love trying out new cakes. This sounds like a chocolate cake to die for.
