I've made this at least 5 times and I can't believe I forgot to rate it! I picked this recipe because 3/4 bottle of Sherry from a previous chicken recipe. Boy was I happy that I did. Everyone loves this. The first time I made it exactly as written. But my personal preference has me to omit the nutmeg. Comes out real moist and not too sweet. -
As I was mixing this the sherry smelled so good! This is a very easy cake to make. I had to bake it 10 minutes longer as toothpick did not come out clean at 45 minutes. I also used Bakers Joy to spray the inside of my fancy pan. It came out really nice, check out the photo. I adopted this chef for the *Spring PAC 2008* game

An easy, deliciously moist cake. -
I am always on the lookout for great ways to make boxed mixes taste more like homemade. DH has a sweet tooth that requires that there always be a cake in the cake plate. This recipe is just the ticket. Thanks for the great recipe.
