Crazy Spice Cake

One-dish spice cake ... so easy! For some reason, my mother-in-law showed me how to make it twice... :) Make it in the cake pan, serve it straight out of the pan, and eat with some vanilla ice cream. However, if you're unsure about how well it will mix (I've never had any problems with it), feel free to use a bowl or two. ;)

I didn't have the almond extract so I used vanilla extract instead. I chopped up some walnuts and tossed about 1 1/2 c of finely chopped nuts in as well. I ended up adding a bit more flower - not entirely sure how much, I just dusted it in until I had a slightly firmer mixture. I did mix the dry ingredients together and then mixed the wet ingredients in another bowl before mixing them all together. I also added one egg to help bind everything together. My husband loved the cake!

I brought this to a pot luck and everyone loved it. The only changes I made were substituting vanilla for almond (just a matter of taste), I mixed it in a bowl and sprayed my baking pan. I did not find it overly spicy or gummy as one review stated. I frosted it with cream cheese frosting. Great recipe, really easy.
