Cooked for 45 minutes and the cake was dry but thankfully very soft. Would recommend 100 g of butter for the icing. Took half a cup of sugar out of the cake to even out the sweetness of the topping. Half a packet and half a tin is a bit ambiguous., approved=true, user_name=Stephanie, hs_createdate=1702249857035, rating_new__1_5_=3, id=11175379538}]}
