This cake is amazing. Very very rich and dark and moist. Not insanely sweet since there’s so much dark chocolate in it. It is everything you could want in a dark chocolate cake. FYI I used instant coffee instead of espresso powder and it worked perfectly in my opinion.

This cake was so delicious! I added a 1/4 cup less sugar. My go to chocolate cake from now on. Moist, extremely chocolatey, absolutely 100% awesome!

I made this cake for my husbands birthday and it turned out really good. I was looking for a cake that was rich in chocolate but not sweet and that is what I got. Everyone really enjoyed it. Personally, I found the icing a tad sweet and will maybe try using less icing sugar and more cocoa next time. I did bake it into a 9 x 13 and I had quite a bit of frosting left over (1 1/2 cups?) Guess I will just have to make some cupcakes since the cake is pretty much gone 😉
