Hi Maxine,

Thanks for the note–I’ve updated the instructions to reflect the *three* pans for dividing batter! Also, I’m sorry this cake didn’t turn out for you–beating the sugar and butter together until the mixture is extremely airy/fluffy can certainly help, as can making sure that the baking powder is still fresh.

Please assist with what may be missing

Lisa, that’s awesome to hear! The custard is my Achilles’ heel, too. Enjoy!

It didn’t rise at all, and was dense. Are you missing any extra liquid from batter recipe?
