You’re so very welcome, Sarah! But something tells me that you ARE a very competent cook! Give yourself some credit, take note of your progress, and soon you’ll have more and more confidence (and fun) in the kitchen.

But if the family is enjoying the meals, it’s thanks to the chef – not the instructor!

In reply to Sidney. Thank you so much, Sidney, and great advice for other readers about the flour substitute and slight reduction of butter required. I appreciate that! And, of course, so glad you enjoyed the recipe. Enjoy!

This is a very tasty cake. I made it by substituting the AP flour with the same amount of gluten free flour mix from America’s test kitchen and it worked well. I should have reduced the butter slightly because GF flours don’t behave the same way, but it is still lovely. Thanks for the recipe.

In reply to Susan. So glad to have you along, Susan! Thrilled you enjoyed this recipe, and very much appreciate you letting us know it turned out well with almond flour as a substitute. This should help some other readers immensely.

Audrey: This is such a good recipe. I made it with almond flour instead of regular flour as I am trying to avoid grains. It turned out very well. Trying out different sugars as well. I cannot wait to try some more of your recipes. Thank you. Susan
