I made this cake twice for Thanksgiving, and made it into cupcakes for Christmas. What a hit! Everyone wants the recipe, and no one can believe it is just so darn good. I found this recipe in your book. I will forever be making this cake for every family or church gathering from now on. Thank you! The chocolate sprinkles and shavings made it look just beautiful. My new FAVORITE cake:)

I hit the door from work at the same time as my son got off the school bus today. He took one look at the empty, dirty covered cake stand and said, “Aw, MAN!! The cake was a hit!!”
Poor kiddo! LOL!
He didn’t get a taste this time, but all the teachers in the department I was subbing in LOVED it. I imagine you got a few more curious followers today. Thanks for the “starts with a mix” recipe. I love those because they are so simple.

My cakes always look like Charlie Brown cakes, I dont make them much though, how do you get yours to look so thick ?? I do much better making other types of sweets, yours looks picture perfect! My layers seem so small compared to yours

Do these work as cupcakes?? They look so yummy! How much time should I take off to make cupcakes instead?

I used just your cream cheese icing recipe (minus the butter flavoring because I didn’t have it on hand at the moment) and I laughed when I read that you use the extra icing on other items later as I sat there eating the rest with a spoon. I have no clue why I can’t lose weight.
