This was so good, everybody enjoyed this. Nobody could believe it was low fat. Iused 1t. vanilla and 1t. almond extract. Thanks for this great recipe, I will be baking this cake often for the low fat dieters.

Hmm... I pride myself on my cake making abilities and this one just didnt turn out right. It was very eggy tasting. Luckily I had some not-so-low fat frosting to put on top to mask the bland flavor. I will try it using 4 whole eggs and see if that makes a difference.
