  1. This is delicious! Light and yet moist. I subbed walnuts for the pecans but otherwise used ingredients exactly as written. I baked mine in a bundt pan and after it was cool, I dusted it with powdered sugar. I served it as a birthday cake last night for my husband's birthday and everyone really enjoyed it. Thanks!
     
  2. Delicious! I halved the recipe, used a combo of applesauce and apple butter and left out the pecans, iced with a thin layer of butter cream icing. Thanks for sharing the keeper recipe.
     
  3. Delicious. Moist. Holds very well and actually improves with age. I was in a hurry and went a little heavy on the spices, no harm done. Perfect fit for bunt style pan.
     
  4. Great recipe. Left out the nuts, used all raisins instead. Great flavor, very moist. Making it today for the second time in a week. It's a hit with my family. A keeper for sure.
