CHOCOLATE CAKE from Crisco®

This recipe is from Crisco®. It's made with all shortening. I made half the recipe and instead of using a 9" round, I used two 6"x2" rounds*. They baked in 22 minutes in a Breville Smart Oven. The frosted cake is only 3.5" tall. I doubled the vanilla. This needed a little more salt. It's moist but lacks flavor. I think it has too much cocoa powder. So less cocoa and more salt would have likely made a difference. Twenty-four hours later it seemed to be just as moist but close to two days later it was drier. For those reasons I wouldn't make it again because I've had better.

I grade this a B. 

*I bought the set of pans from Amazon. Model number 21055636.
