Kraft Kitchens Tips

Size-Wise

Dessert can be a part of a balanced diet, but remember to keep tabs on portions.

High Altitude Directions

Preheat oven to 375°F. Prepare cake batter as directed, adding 2/3 cup flour and increasing water to 1-1/2 cups. Bake as directed.

Alternate Baking Pans

If preparing in different pans, use the following suggested baking temperatures and times: for one 10-inch tube pan, bake at 325°F for 1 hour; for two 9-inch round cake pans, bake at 350°F for 35 to 40 min.; for one 11-cup ring mold, bake at 325°F for 1 hour; for 13x9-inch baking pan, bake at 350°F for 50 min. Always test for doneness with a wooden toothpick. When inserted into center of cake, the wooden toothpick should come out clean.

I made this for my dad's birthday and everyone loved it. It was very moist and I made a cream cheese frosting that made it absolutely delicious.

I never rated this recipe as soon as I made the cake which was 10-13-03 for my younger brother's 25th birthday... Everyone loved it. I have been asked since then to make it for special occasions, Easter, other Birthdays, and just becuase etc... Very good recipe.. I also made from scratch a butter cream icing and it made it even better... With or without nuts depending on the person you are making the cake for makes it really good...
