This sounds perfect for the company potluck next week. I'll try it along with the butterscotch frosting!

Thanx!

I love cooking from scratch so you know I'm going to try this out today....thought I'd make another recipe but this one sounds even better. Going to bake it in mini cake pans though & will let you know how it turns out! Sounds delicious and I need something for a woman whos doing painting in my home this week. Can't wait to hit the counter tops & oven!


The cake is good, but could have been heavier on the spices. Then again I AM a spice lover.
I replaced the sugar with honey and some brown sugar, and sprinkled brown sugar + cinnamon on top for a nice crust. I also stuck some apple slices into the batter. It turned out tasty, but yeah, next time will use about triple the amount of spices.
