This cake was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still good. I think I would reduce the amount of brown sugar next time.

I followed the recipe exactly and the cake turned out dry and crumbly. I'm not sure what went wrong.

I was a bit hesitant to try this recipe because I'm not a big fan of bourbon, but I'm so glad I did! The bourbon flavor is subtle and really complements the brown sugar. This cake is definitely a keeper.
