Personal Notes:
This cake recipe did not actually include the bourbon sauce. I came across it and thought that the 2 would be very good together...and they are. Leftover sauce can be reheated and also poured over ice cream. Can substitue the bourbon for rum, if you prefer. The cake is also deleicious without the bourbon sauce.
