I was disappointed with this recipe. The cake was dry and the streusel topping was too crumbly. I wouldn't recommend this recipe.

This recipe was a bit too complicated for me. I'm not a very experienced baker, so I think I'll stick to simpler recipes in the future.

This recipe was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still very good. I might try reducing the amount of sugar next time I make it.
