Hopefully Kevin will like it for his birthday. I think I'm going to top it with blueberries, but not in a sauce. I'll let you know how it comes out!

You better bring your "A" Game when we do the cake-off, son. Jill and Trudee are tough judges from what I hear :) Greg: I saw the cake…laughed, and walked right by it.

It did crack while in the oven after the cooking time. The different vanilla really gives it more of a sweet vanilla flavor, which is ok, but not my favorite, and the sugar content seems a bit low. I also noticed that it was not really as thick and creamy as the previous time, but was a bit lighter to feel and to taste. So, I made this recipe the other day with three different variables.
