I made these today and they came out awesome! I only had 2 1/2 cups of oatmeal, no coconut and no vanilla (substituted rum flavor). My husband kept on sneaking them and saying "oh yeah, these are keepers" so they passed his taste test - and that's saying something since he's not much of a cookie eater. This is the first time I can remember (in 15 years together) that he's stolen cookies as I made them.

This cake is huge! Use a very large pan. A 9 x 13 or even larger if you have it will do the trick or a 12" spring form pan. I started the layers in an 9" square pan but had enough cake batter left over to bake another cake so I just added some frozen berries and a strussel topping and made a second cake with the left over batter. The cake rises up a lot and the sauce will run over if you don't have a deep enough pan. I learned this the hard way and ended up having to clean my oven. The cake is tasty but the taste of the peaches I used was lost somehow. I was disappointed that the flavour of the fruit was lost so probably won't make this again as an upside down cake although I might use the batter part to make two "coffee" cakes with fruit in the batter and a strussel topping.

This soup was excellent but you better make a double batch because everyone wanted seconds. Perfect just the way it is!
