I saw this being made on "The Thirsty Traveler" and think I will make this during Christmas. The name is a little dirty Italian term, I don't know why they call it this.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my Putana Cake didn't turn out right. The cake was dry and the filling was runny.

I thought this Putana Cake was okay. It wasn't as moist as I would have liked and the filling was a bit too sweet for my taste.
