If so, try a lighter one. Also, you could try adjusting the oven temperature. Most people's ovens vary in temperature, so you might try getting an internal thermometer so you can adjust accordingly. Glad you like the cake! Les, are you using a dark pan? If so, try a lighter one. Also, you could try adjusting the oven temperature.

My ownly problem seems to be I need to cook it 7 extra minutes - and then the edges are a little over done with a ring towards the center still undercooked on the top. Any suggestons?

I liked the flavor, but it was definitely all about the Amaretto. Maybe a bit too much for a lot of people. Tonda, I’m sorry you had troubles with the cake.

Had all the ingredients in the house. Mixed it up, thought I'd use half buttermilk, half milk. That is the only thing I changed. It ran over while baking and made a huge mess in my oven. And I had to cook it about 40 mins. longer than recipe said too. I'm a seasoned cook and baker. Wonder what went wrong?? I have to say, it is very moist. Love that. Love the color. But not overjoyed by the taste. To me it needs something??? I love this site. Baked the chocolate, dried cherry oatmeal cookies and they were awesome!! I'm still a fan and will try more recipes from here. Just not this chocolate amaretto cake again. Thanks. I was so eager to try this cake. Had all the ingredients in the house.

My friend has an amazing chocolate Kahlua cake...wonder if this could be used in a similar way? Amaretto is a great idea–sweet and a little spicy.

I don't use much shortening. I like Baker's Joy or some other spray with flour. That drizzle sounds delicious! Thanks, Kristen! Thanks, stacy! I don’t use much shortening.

Sure, I felt like an idiot buying 4 tablespoons of amaretto (not my liquor style), but it's all done! Anyway, I'm new to cake baking and I'm learning as I go and just in case this tip helps anyone else (my grandma said it should have been a no-brainer, but I sure didn't know it): use shortening, not butter or spray, to grease the bundt pan. This cake is so moist and it just works better. =) For icing, I just used a VERY small amount of butter-cream, melted to the consistency of water, and drizzled it around the outside to make it look marbled. I don't even LIKE chocolate cake but it looked so good I had to eat it. =) AS SOON as I checked your website and found this recipe, I ran out and made it!
