Notes
- Sugar: I always get questions about cutting sugar in cakes. This cake isn't super sweet, so I recommend trying it before you begin cutting the sugar back.
- Cocoa powder: I have used unsweetened cocoa powder and dark cocoa powder in this cake. I haven't tried it with Dutch processed cocoa powder.
- Buttermilk: If you don't have buttermilk, you can make a substitute with this recipe.
- Oil: Or a similar neutral oil.
