Need Help - Italian Cream Cake - High Alt, 7200'
This is the cake I always make for my wifes birthday. When we lived in Virginia it was always excellet. Now living in Colorado at 7200' I have yet to get it right. While the flavor is there it always falls in the center. Hoping I can get some help to make this work. Thanks.
