I would give this cake a 3 out of 5 stars. It was easy to make, but the flavor was just average.

I was so excited to try this cake, but it turned out to be a disappointment. The cake was dry and the frosting was too sweet.

I've made this cake several times now and it's always a hit! It's so moist and flavorful, and the cream cheese frosting is the perfect finishing touch.
