The photo of this recipe, on other sites, looks delightful. Looks can be deceiving! I read the reviews and figured the few "naysayers" were probably wrong. The recipe is easy to prepare, but the end results are mediocre at best. The dessert was rather bland tasting and the cake part was somewhat tough. Sorry , I will not make again.
