ok, made my cake and have a couple additional comments. 1. I agree with aversion33, use 9" pans if you have them. I don't, used 8" with baking strips. It didn't overflow, but it did get pretty high. 2. I used 1 1/2x the frosting recipe because we like heavily frosted cakes. I think it covered very well & gave ample for between. The cake is VERY moist. It says to turn out after sitting 10 minutes. One of mine broke about a 3" chunk out and the other I did quite a bit of light tapping to remove. I would wait longer. I found the icing pretty sweet. If I make the cake again, I will make a whipped cream icing with flavoring in it. For the chocolate, I do not recommend Baker's. Mine came out a little gritty. I liked the saving at the register, but not the results.

I cannot wait to make this cake! I want to do a trial run before Christmas and I'll make it for our family Christmas Eve get-together. I was wondering exactly how much frosting you ended up with because we like a heavily frosted cake. I was thinking about making 1 and 1/2 recipes of it. Do you think that's way too much?

Everyone loved it at the party I took this too. Perfectly moist, didn't fall flat, good on sweetness, professional looking but I took some precautions based on previous reviews: 1) use two 9in pans or three 8in otherwise it'll spill over. 2) to keep cake from collapsing while baking, separate the egg yolks from the whites. Beat whites until light & frothy. Separately beat yolks until golden & creamy, then mix everything in. 3) To cut the sugar down I didn't use frosting for the filling but 4 serving box of choco pudding mix, 1/2 c milk, 1/2 c Irish liqueur. 4) Cool glaze in frig. When you pour it over on top, you don't need to spread it out. It'll naturally fall off the sides beautifully

This cake was amazing. I made it for work and there was not a bad word said. It was gobbled up in no time. It was so good, I am now attempting to make a gluten free version so that my husband can try it too. I was afraid that the irish cream would be over powering but it wasn't.

This is the BEST cake I have ever made!!!! I have made it twice and it comes out perfectly. So moist but not too sweet at all. Everyone absolutely raves over this cake. I always have plenty of frosting for a nice thick cover. Definitely let your glaze cool and thicken a bit before pouring over the cake. I leave the almonds in a bowl and add to the slices as requested since not everyone likes nuts or they may have allergies. It's beautiful and absolutely delicious. A very impressive cake!!!

This cake is FANTASTIC! I made it twice, once with the Amaretto. Both were great, but the Irish Cream version was better. Make sure you use the Betty Crocker Cake mix, and dont over beat the batter, 5 min. is too much. 3-4 min. It is very touchy, I had the cake fall twice when I used a different cake mix. But well worth "re-doing", the cake was a smash hit at the party I brought it to.
