"Moist, fluffy, chocolate-y — and delicious! Note that the Double-Dutch Dark Cocoa called for here isn't packed in a gluten-free facility; substitute certified gluten-free cocoa, if you need to. Note: Use a stand mixer or electric hand mixer to prepare the batter for this cake; mixing by hand doesn't do a thorough enough job...."
