This recipe comes from Life, Love and Sugar. I made half of this cake and I've made it twice. I didn't use the frosting recipe. I left out two tablespoons of cocoa and this turned out great. It's one of those cakes, and there are many of them on the Internet, that use vegetable oil instead of butter, and you pour boiling water or coffee into the batter right at the very end. You cannot go wrong with those type, usually. I do advise you to line your baking pan completely with foil that's sprayed with nonstick spray or use nonstick foil if you plan to remove the cake from the pan you baked it in. The cake is very sticky and wants to stick to the pan. If you only line the bottom, like I did the first time, you're going to have a problem. The first time I made this I used a round 9" x 1.5" pan and it baked in 20 minutes. The second time I used a square 8" x 2" pan and it took four minutes longer since it's a deeper pan.
I grade this an A+.
