Best Homemade Chocolate Cake

Really lovely recipe. I did panic when the mixture was very liquidy, and I had to ladle it into the pans but baked perfectly. I had left over mixture, so did 5 layers. Halved the buttercream filling recipe and ended up being the perfect amount.

Great cake!

Awesome but I used parchment in addition to greasing and flouring pan in two of the pans. I forgot on the third and it stuck to the pan.

It tastes so sweet and moist! It takes a while to bake though.

HOLY THIS WAS SO YUM

Excellent recipe. A couple of tips: 1- This recipe can also be used to make cupcakes, if making cupcakes reduce baking time to 20 mins. 2- Because this cake will continue cooking as it cools, a few crumbs may stick with a toothpick test. Generally if it springs back with a light press it’s done. Overall very good recipe and the included chocolate buttercream recipe is a winner too!
