I have just made this as a trial run for DH's birthday lunch on Sunday. It is excellent - very moist, nice crumb, not too dense. I served it with a vegan white chocolate ganache icing and am decorating it with banana chips. Thanks for the recipe! So nice to have a winner on my first shot.

Followed the directions exactly and it turned out perfectly. I put a simple frosting of confectioner's sugar and water on it and it was really good. Very moist cake!!

Wonderfully moist cake and very easy to make. I made it and added walnuts. I served it with and without a vanilla sauce. It was delicious both ways. Next time I might add some chopped dates or dried sweet cranberries.
