In reply to Charles Burkett. Great question! 8x3-inch refers to 8-inch round, 3 inches tall. I've linked one like this in the equipment section so you can see. I've also added some clarity to the recipe.

The pictures show a round cake, but the instructions call for a loaf pan. Would you please clarify? I’m very eager to make this! Thank you.

I just made this for our St Patrick’s day dinner and it was a hit! I was a little nervous about the a. Alcohol throughout and what it would be like in a cake and frostings and b. The sour cream in the whipped topping. I almost didn’t add the whiskey to the white knight frosting or whipped topping – but so glad i did. It was very subtle and not overpowering at all. And the Heineken in the cake was soooo good. It wouldn’t be my go to everyday cake recipe but it’s definitely going to be my go to St Patrick’s day cake! The sour cream in the whipped topping worked out too (although I did add a bit more sugar since I felt it needed a tad bit more sweetness)! But definitely a 5 star review and will make it again next year!

It would be great if the recipes were separate from the photos so that the print is larger when printed out on paper. I had to screenshot the two parts and print those. I don’t always want to use my iPad, so I have old fashioned printed recipes!

It looks amazing!! I usually make a chocolate stout cake with whiskey frosting, but I’m going to have to try this. Did you use an acetate sheet to keep your cake so neat?

Thanks!
