I have made this recipe twice. I am the only one in the family who can’t eat gluten. The second time I made it was for my daughter, grandchildren and great grandchildren who were having a family brunch. Everyone loved it ! First time I made it I used the metric measurements; second time I used cups, etc. The only difference was that the second cake was higher.
Great recipe. It is a “keeper”.
