This is an amazing recipe! My cake turned out velvety and delicious - it was a big hit with everyone lucky enough to get a piece. I made two alterations to the recipe - I added 1 tbsp vanilla extract instead of 1 tsp and I added some heavy cream for moisture. Also, if you sift the 3 cups of all purpose flour three times, you can ensure the velvety texture :-)
