I don't know what "tweaks" you added except for increasing the amount of salt and not sifting the flour before and with the baking powder and salt. Other than that, the recipe is exactly the same. I made this on Saturday in a loaf pan instead of a bundt pan and it is delicious even without your icing. I have all of Maida Heatter's books and have never been disappointed with a single recipe I've made over the past 30 years. They are staples of my kitchen.
