I think this cake is the best, without any revisions!! I have always made it with zucchini or yellow squash - maybe that is why those who used apples found it too sweet. I use this recipe because it uses so much less oil. I get compliments and am asked for the recipe every time I make it. I've always topped it with cream cheese frosting. I have substituted pecans when out of walnuts, or just omitted the nuts but find it best with nuts included. I want to make it with carrots sometime. It also turned out good when I didn't have enough zucchini to measure 4 cups, with only 2 cups or so. Thanks Carla!

Very good!! I added a tsp. of sugar to the batter, which is thin, but it needs to be thin. And I didn't make a sauce, they didn't need anything else. I made 18 jumbo shrimp and had enough of everything left to make more. Thanks!

This was a very good stir fry meal. I used ground ginger (didn't have fresh on hand) and I didn't have the hot chili paste either. I added some hot pepper flakes to the marinade and used hoisin sauce in place of the chili paste for flavor. I substituted one tbsp. of sesame oil when cooking the pork. I added a sliced rib of celery with the bell peppers, and the thickener (one tbsp. of both cornstarch and cold water) and two sliced green onions at the end. One bag of Success rice was just the right amount to go with this recipe.
