OMG WOW!!! I am a full-time baker/cake decorator and therefore usually immune to cake, but even I couldnt keep my hands out of this one! I reduced the serving size to 9 which easily filled a 9x13 pan. The only change I made was to sub 1 cup buttermilk + 1/3 cup butter (microwave 30 sec and mix) for the sour cream. Baked in a glass pan even the edges came out soft and fluffy and cutting it was a dream. It was dense but still moist and fluffy and this will definitely become my go-to chocolate cake for shaped cakes! thank you so much for sharing!!

wooooo!!! This recipe is so easy to work with. Ive always cringed when clients ask for buttercream decorations because I find fondant much easier to use, but this frosting might be just the thing to finally make me learn buttercream roses (maybe).

This recipe is ridiculous! Ive always loved bbq sauce, but being a vegetarian has really limited what I can do with it, but this recipe has completely changed that! I loved it so much, after the first time I tried it, I made it three days in a row!

Really good stuff! I used vegan beef crumbles instead of the actual meat called for, and skipped the skillet, just dumped everything into the crock pot and let it go. I was surprised it all fit in my 4qt pot, would probably work better in a bigger one.

Did as others suggested and used cornstarch in place of flour, also 3 yolks in place of 2 whole eggs makes a HUGE difference. When I did the whole eggs i ended up straining out the thick bits that kept floating to the top which was pretty nasty. Also used about half a bag of flaked coconut in the pie which gave it a great texture. Sooo good!

I think these are ok. However, I went to my husbands corporate christmas party last night and everyone he introduced me to said, "ohhhhh! Youre the one who makes those "things" they are incredible!!" So, for having a stellar reputation before I even walk through the door this recipe gets 5 stars.
