Needed more sweetener - but thats also personal preference. Best Chai so far.

VERY good cake, but VERY VERY sweet. After someone told me their teeth actually hurt from the intense sugar, I decided to make just a couple of modifications that really make a difference. First, I replaced the water with coconut milk and I reduced the sweet condensed milk by 2/3. The cake is still plenty sweet, just not so intense. The reduction in condensed milk also eliminates sogginess, a problem many reviewers noted. Second, rather than poke holes in the cake to pour the glaze into, I slice the cake into two layers after it's cooled a bit. Then, I spread 1/2 of the glaze between the layers, sprinkle some coconut, and reassemble. I top the cake with the remaining glaze and add whipped cream on top.

Easy as pie, and SUPERB taste. Gets rave reviews every time. I serve with coleslaw and bread & butter pickles.
