Despite not needing icing, this wonderfully moist cake is good with nut icing.

4.26.22 Even if you use a superfine sugar (I actually used Splenda®), when you add the brown sugar, you’re going to have a texture that will be a bit grainy, not super smooth. And for me, that’s wasn’t a major problem. I blended all the ingredients except the brandy, and was concerned that 1/4 cup (4T) of brandy would make the texture runny. I cut the brandy amount in half which gave me the spreading consistency that I like, but didn’t lose the brandy flavor. I typically have some type of flavored spread in the fridge for breakfast muffins, biscuits, toast, and croissants, and I’ll occasionally make this one. My 4-star rating is based on using half the amount of brandy specified in the recipe.
