Questions & Replies

There is a question asked by one of the people who read this recipe for Soft and Fluffy Chocolate Cake by food.com asking why there is "baking powder" listed in the list of ingredients, BUT ONLY BAKING SODA mentioned in the DIRECTIONS ... AND there is NO ANSWER TO THAT QUESTION. I, too, would like to know if it's BAKING POWDER or BAKING SODA that should be used in this recipe. WHY DO YOU BOTHER TO LIST RECIPES THAT HAVE NOT BEEN PROPERLY CHECKED FOR TYPOS and OTHER ERRORS / MISTAKES, AND WHEN NO ONE IS REPLYING TO THE QUESTIONS BEING ASKED? How DARE YOU post your recipes that might not turn out & end up getting thrown out? I believe this recipe for Soft and Fluffy Chocolate Cake was posted by IZZA ZANAB. Also, there is NO CONTACT info for Izza Zanab.

The ingredient list says baking powder, and the directions say baking soda. Which is it? Thank you.
