I made this cake and it came out really moist, and tasty. The only thing I did wrong is put it in a pan that had a removable bottom, my fault, but the butter mixture seeped out of it. Even so, the cake tasted great. Also, I managed to flip it upside down and land half in the plate and half off :( again my fault! Have printed it out and having attempt number two tomorrow! Thanks for the recipe
