***Need to make this cake, today! Any chance I can find out what size pan to bake to use? It's not listed anywhere in the recipe. Thank you!

Thanks SO much for your quick reply! HAHAHA...Yes...I caught the double listing of the chocolate, also. My hunch is that this is a great recipe, but the directions are so disjointed I think that serious bakers (who LOVE your site), may have gotten frustrated or suspicious of the way the recipe was written. This may have caused them to look for another alternative. Not sure if you can correct it by rewriting it, attributing it to Bon Appetit and repost (of course, I may have egg on my face because I have no idea about the legal ramifications of citing Bon Appetit).

Thanks, again, for your quick response! I will be serving it tomorrow at my Women's Wine Group and I'm sure they will be over-the-moon!

This Q&A forum is not the appropriate place to discuss intellectual property law or the ethics of stealing other people's work and passing it off as your own. It's up to the site operators to decide if they will take any action.

I just typed in "darkest chocolate cake red wine glaze" into a search engine and the Bon Appetit recipe came up as the first result. It took me about five seconds.

Because it is a Bon Appetit recipe, it should be well researched and tested. I would probably use a softer wine (like the pinot noir that the Bon Appetit version suggests) rather than the harder tannic Cabernet Sauvignon. Heck, I'm guessing that Zinfandel would be a pretty good choice too.

Hope you and your guests enjoy the cake.
