Very moist cake with good flavour. I halved the recipe and it still turned out very well. For those looking to do the same, mine was done in about 40 minutes in a 350F oven.

I tweaked it some. I used canned evaporated milk and frozen huckleberries plus lingon berries. I also poked holes in the hot cake and poured thin vanilla icing all over the top. Outrageous, moist cake. A real winner.

My 2.7 y/o twins loved it; "DEE-LEE-CIOUS", they said. It tasted even better on the second day. Thanks for a very yummy recipe.

I had printed out this recipe after we got the news of Pets death. I made the cake the other night and it was fantastic! I will be making it again. It needs no icing/frosting. It's a sweet/tart taste that would even be good as a coffee cake! Yum.

This was so delicious! I can't wait to make it again! I didn't have cranberries so I used some fresh strawberries. It was very very good.
