"Even though the Food Network placed a disclosure on the recipe, who ever typed it should have thought that 1 tablespoon of salt was a little much. Maybe 1 teaspoon. Also, recipe is confusing. The cake is delicious but messy. I would use the cake for yellow cake but with another recipe. Also, way, way too much batter for my pans, went everywhere, made a big mess. Took me most of the day to cook. I might bake again but only with plenty of time and only for a big occasion. Too much work for everyday cake."
