This cake is delicious, but it's a little too rich for me. I think I'll try using half the amount of butter next time.

I'm allergic to chocolate, so I made this cake with carob chips instead. It was still delicious!

I followed the recipe exactly, but my cake didn't turn out as moist as I expected. I'm not sure what I did wrong.
