Recipe calls for 1 1/2 cup sugar. Only after realizing that the butter mix and the poppy seed mix do not become light and fluffy did I realize the sugar probably should have gone in. Next the recipe calls for 1 cup milk, 3/4 for soaking poppy seeds, and 1/4 cup with the vanilla. I was surprised when the directions stated sift dry ingredients alternately with remaining milk! What remaining milk? The batter was so dry that I couldn't put in the cake pans as is, so I did add milk, I don't know how much just enough to make it the right consistency to pour. I made the custard filling recipe with vanilla pudding milk heavy cream, confectioners sugar and vanilla. I topped the cake off with a Betty Crocker Milk Chocolate frosting. It was wonderful, a big hit with all 10 people that tried it. I would do it again with the corrections.
