I made this tonight for a dinner party my mom threw here in Ottawa. It was a hit, even though the yeast I used was all but dead, so the bottom cake was more like a shortbread. I also had to cut the cooking time down to 45 minutes - different elevation maybe? But, the second I saw this on the website I knew I just had to wait for the right excuse to make it! Yum yum! With vanilla whipped cream. Hi Julie!

The last one I made took something like five sticks of butter, yikes.
