We have made this twice. It is a great recipe that is very easy to prepare and has wonderful flavor. Also everyone raves about it and about how moist it is. I prefer to make a cream cheese frostening for this but the icing in the recipe is okay just too sweet along with the sweetness of the cake. Used half of a 10oz can of crushed pineapple. Thought it could use just a few more cherries then what the recipe calls for. I will make this over and over again we enjoyed it!
