I make a sea salt caramel frosting,puts it over the top!!
don't waste your time
I bake cakes all the time, All kinds of cakes and this was a total disaster. It was so heavy and thick. And the frosting was so super sweet. Be aware that it only takes a moment to scorch that sugar for the frosting. it will look good but it will taste burnt. So don't make it as dark as the recipe calls for. This appears to be a standard recipe for layer, My thought is the extra flour makes it heavy. Maybe the use of cake flour would be better. i am not willing to try it again. I made it for my daughter's birthday. We were so disappointed.
A must for Christmas
