Several guests wanted the recipe. Although it was fine on its own, we served it with raspberry coulis and creme chantilly. Served the remainder a few days later with sliced strawberries. Perfect both times. Well I made the cake with 3 cups of sugar and it was a big hit. Several guests wanted the recipe.

Fear not, the three cups is correct. There was a tech glitch on the show, and the notes said two cups. I'm sure the cake will turn out perfectly! Hi, Lee. Fear not, the three cups is correct.

It smelled wonderful and we'll know the results Sunday. So I thought I'd take a look at your video, which I had not watched before I made the cake. Was I surprised when you had Sonia beat 5 eggs and then add 2 cups of sugar. OMG, I made a mistake becase I added 3 cups of sugar. Then I went back to the recipe itself and sure enough it calls for 3 cups, not 2. Well I don't plan to remake it before Sunday and now I don't know which is your formula, 2 cups or 3 cups of sugar. I'll send a report on the 3 cup version sometime after Sunday. Lee David, I made your olive oil cake yesterday, followed the recipe very carefully.
