Directions
Dark Cocoa Buttermilk Cake With Chocolate Cream Cheese Frosting, This cake is amazingly delicious I got it off the BHG website and made it yesterday It got the best reviews for any cake i’ve ever made, and it is definately going to be one of my favorites I hope you enjoy it too!, My daughter and I actually made The Best Chocolate Cake Recipe Ever and used the icing from this cake The icing is about the best we’ve ever had The cake has coffee in in and with this icing, the dessert is to die for We both hope and believe my friends 50th birthday cake will be a hit My daughter said we should make this cake and sell the slices Delicios!, I made this for my father-in-law’s birthday (I’m the cake baker for all of the family functions) and followed the directions exactly There were about 15 of us who ate it, and I think on the whole it was enjoyed by everyone My husband and I thought this cake was good, but not our absolute favorite The texture is a bit more dense than we like, and the combination of it with the chocolate cream cheese frosting is VERY rich If you like a decadent chocolate cake, this is the one for you As for us, we’ll keep searching for a cake with a slightly more tender crumb and lighter texture I may use the frosting for a batch of yellow cake cupcakes though – the kids especially liked it!Thanks for sharing I always like trying out a new cake recipe
