    I made this cake today. Let me tell you, it was amazing and was the softest cake i made all my life! It baked perfectly with no cracks on the top.
    I improvised on the recipe with one alteration…I replaced the hot water with hot coffee, and let the dates soak overnight.
    I also made a coffee glaze for the top…1 cup sugar, 1 and 1/2 tbsp butter and 2 tsp strong brewed coffee.
    I recommend this cake to everybody out there. You MUST try this!

    Wonderful blog! Do you have any tips for aspiring writers?
    I’m hoping to start my own blog soon but I’m a little lost on everything.
    Would you recommend starting with a free platform like WordPress or go for a paid option? There are so many options out there that I’m totally overwhelmed ..
    Any tips? Many thanks!
