I add cinnamon and nutmeg for a spicier cake, but otherwise it's absolutely delicious!

Made this cake without the nuts since we do not care for nuts. Still very yummy and incredibly moist.

This is a great recipe. I've made it several times. I made it for my church group and they loved it. Thanks for your great website.

Loved this cake; a little too sweet for my taste but the second time I made it I didn't pack the brown sugar and it turned out delicious!!! Have made it many times since.

This is a GREAT box-cake recipe! I dusted the top with powdered sugar and then drizzled chocolate glaze over the top of that. I then pressed a pecan half on the top of each of the wider sections created by my bundt pan - it looked rather nice! (Check the powdered sugar isle in your store for chocolate powdered sugar - glaze recipe is on the box!) I might try it with a marble cake mix next time!

I've already made this cake three times. It is so moist and delicious. My friends and guests LOVE it. I've shared the recipe with friends who bake so more people can enjoy this excellent cake.

Easy and delicious. Next time will make certain to use the sugar and cinnamon to coat the pan before baking. Love that it tastes so good and there is no need for frosting. Will make again.

My daughter was NOT happy to see a 'cake without frosting' for her birthday - until she bit into it! Now she's planning on serving it to the adults at her 2 year olds bday party in 2 weeks! I'd give it 10 stars if I could!
