Thanks, Dave. Yes, that's a great cake, and I have made it almost as often
as their "Perfectly Chocolate" Chocolate Cake which is also wonderful. The
only difference between them is the former uses buttermilk instead of
regular milk and coffee instead of water. There's also a slight adjustment
of the ratio between baking soda and baking powder. Oh, when I make the
Black Magic Cake, I frost it with a mocha frosting. Delicious!

If I could find a yellow cake recipe that tastes as good as those chocolate
cakes, I'd be all set.

Thanks again,
Wayne
