"can the sauce be made ahead of time??"
"I would like to see and read recipe, however I do not have access to it. Oh Well!"
"The baking instructions should eliminate the confusion. Now, I just wish someone would make this and comment on its taste and "star power". Guess I'll just go ahead and try it and then I'll review it!"
"I agree with @tsuop! In fact, the last sentence in the paragraph about the cake was supposed to be put as the first of the sauce method, but it's just a "cosmetic" mistake and each cook (not only above-average !!!) should understand it. It isn't confusing at all. :)"
"I agree the cornstarch should be listed with the sauce. If you are an above-average cook it shouldn't be to hard to figure out!! The cornstarch & water goes in the sauce, that's what thickens the sauce!! Make the sauce & just stop whining!"
"This sounds really good! I don't understand why some are having issues with the recipe. It doesn't seem confusing at all."
"If you read the instructions it tells you what to do with the vodka and also what to do with the cornstarch mixture and when. Seems pretty straight forward to me. Sound wonderful to me."
"Can't rate it just yet - just now read the recipe but....when you read the Directions it does tell how and when to add the cornstarch to the recipe.
When I cut and paste it to my own recipes to try I'll place it there at that time :)""Sorry my comment appears twice - When I hit Submit (several times, actually), it wouldn't fly!"
"I rated this low because the recipe is so unclear as to the "cornstarch mixture". It's included in the recipe for mixing the cake! I'm considered an above-average cook, but this one has me stumped! And I was so eager to have a good sauce recipe for the angel food cake I already have (given to us by a neighbor) as well as fresh berries! Please state where the "cornstarch mixture" starts and ends."
