This cake and all of its components are ABSOLUTELY delicious, but I have one problem. It never LOOKS good. I've made it three times and have had different issues each time. The first time I didn't thicken the syrup enough so it basically just made the whipped cream runny. The second time I didn't whip the cream enough so it wasn't fluffy enough. Both of those times I used a springform pan and the center didn't cook all the way through, so I decided to try using 2 9" rounds and they baked wonderfully, but were difficult to get out and actually "broke". I didn't think this would be much of a problem, but when I layered them, the pieces ended up pulling apart and sliding off the sides. It looked a MESS, so I served it as one of those kind of things where you just mix it up lightly and spoon it into a bowl. I'm pretty much resolved to believe that this is how it's always going to be. Bummer, but I'll keep trying because the taste it out of this world.
