Default Chocolate Cake

thebighat gave me a recipe for a yellow cake using fluid flex that I live by. Does anyone have a chocolate cake recipe using fluid flex as well?

This high ratio stuff is a killer. Have not found anything but if I do will post it. Maybe someone else has a recipe?

Best Regards Cakerookie...

Sir -
Replace 10% of the sugar with same amount of cocoa powder. Should give you a good deep chocolate cake.

Oops - my mistake. You are correct - 10% of flour. Thanks for the good catch.

I only use butter in most of my cakes - occasionally margarine - but not often!
