This cake was a complete disaster! It was dry, crumbly, and the filling was too runny. I would not recommend this recipe.

The cake was a bit dry, but the filling was delicious. I would recommend using more butter in the cake batter next time.

This cake was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still very good. I would recommend using less sugar in the filling next time.
