Lovely recipe, should it have more eggs than 2 or not as the batter was very thick? Would like to know and so would other people who have commented. Very sweet but moist and delicioius

In the recipe it says 2 eggs but on the video it says 4 eggs for this cake. Which is correct as this is most misleading?

It is not clear from method when the liquer should be added - I added before the almond sauce by making holes in cake with skewer & spooning in.
