This cake did the trick for my brother's birthday dinner. I double the recipe, making 2 9" cakes to make a layered cake. They did in fact rise, so I'm glad I only filled the pans halfway, but then they sunk in the center while they cooled. It wasn't a huge problem because you couldn't even tell when I slathered the cake with homemade chocolate buttercream. Haha! My brother and I thought it kind of tasted like pancakes with frosting on them, which also isn't a problem because I love pancakes and I love frosting! Thank you for posting!

I made this a while back. It is so good! I enjoyed the hint of almond. I really like using Pamela's mix because I can whip something together so quickly. The only problem is not eating it all in one sitting. :) Thank you for the wonderful recipe.
