I read the reviews and saw the ups and downs. So, I made sure the egg whites were at room temp, and everything was exactly like the recipie. It looked too small in the pan, but when it tested done, I took it out. Way too packed.......but I did the frosting anyway. But, then I took a step back, looked at it and couldn't make myself serve it at a dinner. It's deep 6 in the bottom of my trash can!

It was very tasty, however it was a litle heavy. But my husband loved it and since we are both watching our sugar and weight I was more than satisfied with it. I didn't top with the chocolate since with only the two of us and we limit ourselves to one piece a day I felt it might get sticky. I just added low fat whipped topping as we ate each piece.

I didn't have any whipped topping so I just used whipping cream. The cake turned out very nice. Also, it wasn't too sweet.

Wow, I'm not sure what the negative reviews are about--This cake was devoured by my whole family. I didn't have the Cool Whip so I just used powdered sugar, still very, very good.

This was easy to make - I just wish I had some fresh raspberries (carefully thawed some frozen ones).

Wow this cake was to easy to make and the family loved it alot. Yes the batter was thick until i added the egg whites and i didnt have a portion problem, and it wasnt crumbly. I would say it turned out perfect. We were out of season for raspberries and i did top it with a little cool whip over the ganache. This was a trial. Im going to love making it next week for a Christmas party:)

batter was too dry, and therefore lumpy. not sure what i did wrong. looks marbel-y and pretty though! couldn't bring myself to even try it due to the lumps.

I am not sure what I did wrong, but the batter was REAL thick. It was real hard to fold the egg whites into such a thick batter. When I took out 2 cups of batter to add the chocolate, it did not leave enough yellow batter to work with. I ended up using 1 1/4 cup for the chocolate mixture. It did not rise much. Looks real dense & heavy. To be fair, I have not yet tasted it so I am giving 3 stars. Please provide feedback on what I may have done wrong.

Hey Grandma832...what's to translate or transpose here?!?! It is called a "PRINT" key, very easy to follow! The cake is a basic low fat sponge cake...and looks delicious! Thanks for sharing the recipe with the rest of us!
