This cake is very yummy and moist. I used a nonstick 9" springform pan and doubled the crumble filling. In the middle layer, I also sprinkled about 3 cups of fresh blackberries which had been tossed with a squeeze of lemon juice and 2 T of white sugar. The 1 C of butter seemed a little much, so I also cut it down to a little more than 1/2 C. Chopped walnuts also made a nice addition to the top filling. My husband, my parents, and my coworkers all love this cake and the recipe is just so easy to follow. I'd definitely recommend trying it, especially if you have a bunch of extra sour cream lying around.

Fantastic! Everyone wants the recipe! I follow it exactly, but I make a little extra filling and pile it on top. I've made this in all shapes and sizes and it always comes out great.

This was so easy to make. I followed the recipe as written and was totally happy with the results. A great use for leftover sour cream!

Followed the recipe as is and found it be very heavy. Cake was very moist because of the 2 sticks of butter and 1 cup of sour cream. The flavor was ok...nothing special to me. I don't think I'll be making this recipe again with all that butter.

I made the recipe exactly as written and thought it was too greasy and overly sweet. I love sugary desserts but this was a bit too sweet for breakfast.

I used nonfat vanilla yogurt instead of the sour cream, and it was delicious!

I followed the recipe and when I removed it from the oven, the center was liquid. I put it back in the oven and baked for 45 minutes more. Still, the outside was done but the center was not. I must say, the edges were delicious, I just wish the entire thing had baked properly.
