    I baked this, but it ended up dry. I'm not sure what went wrong, the flavor was great, but wasn't the texture I was hoping for. The batter was very thick and not pourable. I omitted the bread crumbs for the pan, used 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg because I didn't have whole, used whole milk because we don't use fat-free. I also accidentally mixed the powdered sugar into the cake as I didn't realize it was for dusting, oops. I frosted with a Browned Butter Browned Sugar Frosting. I would make this cake again, because the flavor is what I wanted. Maybe I over beat it or perhaps baked it too long. I checked it at 50 minutes and it was done, possibly over done. Thank you for sharing. :-)

    This looks perfect. A good cup of coffee or tea, a good book, and I'd be set. ;-)
