I followed the recipe exactly, but my cake turned out dry and dense. I'm not sure what went wrong.

I was disappointed with this recipe. The cake was not as moist as I expected it to be, and the chocolate and spice flavors were not very strong. I would not make this recipe again.

Not a fan of this recipe. The cake was dry and crumbly, and the chocolate and spice flavors were not very pronounced. I would not recommend this recipe.
