Altered ingredient amounts. Line bottom and sides of baking tin with parchment paper, otherwise it will be difficult to get the cake out of the tin. - 12 Dec 2010
Very good cake, almost like a sticky cake. I lined sides and bottom of the baking tin with parchment paper and was glad I did otherwise it would have been difficult to get it out of the tin. It is easy to make and the taste is wonderful. Well worth making! - 12 Dec 2010
I have nothing but positive things to say about this recipe!! It's great!! I omitted the raisins (unfortunately, my family does not care for them like I do) and spread cream cheese frosting overall. OHHHH sooo good!! Thanks Corwynn for sharing this one...its a keeper! - 22 Oct 2002 (Review from Allrecipes US | Canada)
