{has_more=true, offset=250, total=333, results=[{comment_text=Wonderful cake, so moist even after two days. I did increase the flour by 1/2 cup as recommended by other reviews and decreased the baking powder to 1 1/2tsp as I was a bit nervous of a strong baking powder taste from using 3tsp. It was very fluffy, but it did sink slightly in the middle, so next time I make it I will try with 3tsp. I also halved the syrup amount as I only had one large lemon instead of two. Delicious alone or as a warm or cold pudding served with yogurt, cream, or ice cream. I would recommend a plate and spoon as it can fall apart easily at times, approved=true, hs_createdate=1702249861950, rating_new__1_5_=4, id=11175342894}, {comment_text=Delicious and moist. But I didn't do the syrup I iced it instead I used 1 and 1/2 cups icing sugar rind off 1 lemon 1 teaspoon butter and enough boiling water to make it a smooth consistency! Huge hit!!
