"I should of realized this recipe was flawed when the sugar ingredient was only 1 1/2 teaspons. But I still gave it a try and it came out exactly like my expectations. No flavour not even spongy. Ma..." See moreybe there was a typo with the ingredients. If I added more sugar this cake could of probably been saved. But instead it falls flat! EDITORS NOTE: The incorrect sugar amount was due to a technical error on our part. We have fixed the recipe, and apologize for the inconvenience."
