Made this gluten free for my friend's birthday. I used your GF chocolate cake mix and did not split my layers - was concerned that my hand would not be steady enough. The results were awesome! The cake was a huge hit. That filling!!!! So rich and flavorful! I had nature's refrigerator going for me; it was no problem to keep putting the cake and components on the porch to cool and set up. I followed your directions and was pleasantly surprised at how quickly the completed cake came together. I had never bothered with a crumb coat before but it's going to be my go to now. Best compliment - my friend, who's always on a diet, kept all of the leftovers so I knew she loved it!
