SO HOW'D IT GO?
I made this cake with a friend and it turned out all right. The cake was moist, but the chocolate taste was milder than either of us would've liked. Any ideas on how to make it more flavorful? More cocoa? More sugar? Both?
At any rate, it seems like a good basic recipe with which to experiment.
