Overall, this was a good recipe. The cake was moist and flavorful, but the frosting was a bit too runny.

I would give this recipe 5 stars if it wasn't for the fact that it was a bit too sweet for my taste.

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