After making the correction with the baking soda correction. This recipe was very moist, rich and tasty. My family loved it. Is there a low fat version of this recipe.

Wow, you guys are tough. I just made the cake, and it's been a very long time since I made a scratch cake. The batter tasted great and I'm hoping the finished product does. I needed to add milk to the frosting recipe, maybe as much as 2-3 tablespoons to get the right consistency.

This is tasty (provided that cocoa powder is used instead of baking soda...)!

My grandma made cake just like this, down to the frosting! In fact, this is basically her recipe. No wonder it's so popular with my family. :)

I will go out on a limb and say the 1/3 cup baking soda should be 1/3 cup baking cocoa.... why would no one else think this as well?? I've baked enough cakes/brownies in my day to have figured this one out. Will probably use 3 cups self rising flour or basic all purpose and adjust baking soda/salt accordingly. Sounds wonderful though, may have to test run this one tonight! =)

Think there is something terribly wrong with this recipe. 1/3 cup baking soda???? I think that should be cocoa....

Ditto with everyone else. Would no stars mean "Would not make in the first place?" That's all of us so far.
