    My daughter and I tried this cake for a pot luck dinner. We made it the morning of. At the pot luck, it was kind of dry, not very white- chocolate flavored, and the icing was hard and waxy. BUT the next day, the icing had softened up, the cake was more moist and the flavors had mixed. Much better. I'd recommend making it completely 24 hours in advance, covering it and serving it then. It really is delicious.

    Oh my gosh, I'm speechless! Usually I automatically pass on recipes where I have to cream butter & sugar. But this might even be worth going out & buying layer cake pans! (Can you tell that I don't bake?!)
