I was looking for a scratch cake to use with a can of mandarin oranges.This is the only one I found. I doubled the recpie and it came out good,but very very SWEET!I am a sweet lover but whoa.. maybe next time I will double the cake and not the topping:)

This was such a good cake. I made just one batch to try it and had to whip up another cake right after because my husband dug in and ate up most of the first cake! I didn't have any brown sugar in the house but I had a container of cream cheese frosting and it worked out very well! I will be making this cake again soon!

This cake got the Emergency Room staff seal of approval. I did find it very sweet, though, but according to my workmates, this would be great with custard as a dessert.

Oh yum! This was good. The only thing I'll do different next time is to double the recipe and bake it in a 9x13 pan. This one went too fast!
