I baked this cake from the chocolate cake scratch off last year. It was submitted by Lita829. I found it to be really light and fluffy. I would have preferred a little less almond flavor, but the texture was great. Deluxe Chocolate...

The WOW recipe is my favorite vanilla cake recipe as well. I, too, had difficulty with it, but was determined to make it work because it just tastes so darn good. I got a few tips from Snarkybaker. She uses a modified version of this...
