The cake was very good, but I can't say the same for the frosting. It was terrible.I would make the cake again with another frosting. |

I tried this recipe for a mothers day treat. The cake was very good....but the frosting was horrible to make i burned myself and it took for ever it was a lot darker then the picture and runny i had to add a lot of milk because it was just a hard sugar ball when i tried to mix it.... But it was good. I will make the cake over not too sure about the frosting |

I must have done something wrong with the frosting stage of this recipe. It took more than 20 minutes to get the sugar to caramelize when at the end of it all, it was too runny to stay on the cake & was completely grainy, telling me the sugar never really melted. |

good cake but the homemade frosting was way too sweet for my taste... next time I would use the store-bought frosting from the jar instead. |

WOW!! Just go for it and you'll LOVE IT, I promise. The homemade frosting is super easy and (no offense) so much better than any store bought frostings. In fact, even IF I use a boxed cake mix, I make my own frostings. So easy, I have recipe for one using chocolate chips! "Fanny Farmer Cookbook", you can't go wrong, honest! Plus, their reg. cookbook has so many tips right inside the covers- front and back - that are invaluable, those alone are worth the $ of the cookbook, which isn't expensive to start with. A good, basic book! When I saw they had a "Baking Book" I snapped it right up. HINT, when using cake mixes, sub 1 stick butter for oil, and it'll taste homemade!!! Works every time! Always use Large eggs, if it only calls for 2, use 3 eggs, keeps it moist much, much longer. Nothing worse than a dry cake, right??? Have Fun and Enjoy, RSB in Tucson, AZ |

I was nervous making this, as I am a first-time cook (and rumor has it that carmelizing sugar is hard), and I was making this for a birthday girl who really likes her plain chocolate cake and is fairly resistant to change. I needn't have worried. She took one bite, and now sis has a new favorite! |

This is a wonderful smooth tasting easy on the palate Mexican Chocolate Cake. I served this following Steak Fajitas and my family had the glazed eyes and made those "you know" yummy sounds; repeatly. My daughter licked the extra icing from the spoon and couldn't wait for dinner. This was a huge hit. Warning...this is a very sweet cake. I would highly recommend this cake. |
