I made this into cupcakes and while they are good, they really don't have the amaretto taste I was hoping for. I even added extra amaretto to the batter and a little extra almond extract. If I attempt this again, I would double the glaze (really the only almond flavor) and add atleast a tablespoon of almond extract. For now I'll just have to make almond flavored frosting.

This was OK but way too chemically. That was my mistake for choosing to make a cake that required two pre-boxed ingredients, though...

This was great! I made a little thicker glaze and toned down the amaretto in the glaze. For the 1 cup of confectioner's sugar I used 3 T. of water and 1 T. of amaretto. This was so moist and had a great flavor. Will definitely be making this one again. So easy too! I would recommend to anyone. Thanks for sharing!

Easy and very tasty. We prefer desserts that are not over the top sweet and this fits the bill. Plus, I usually have all the ingredients on hand. I've made it many times and friends always ask for the recipe. Bon Appetite

I made one change to this great moist cake is instead of 1/2 cup of water...use Amaretto instead. Makes a big different, much more flavor. I get many requests. I top the glaze with sliced amonds. Looks so pretty.

I was disappointed in this cake. It was very moist, but seemed to have no flavor. I thought it was a good waste of expensive Amaretto.

This cake was moist and delicious. I used Betty Crocker's super moist yellow butter cake mix which required a stick of butter. This is definitely a keeper!

Excellent! I just added a drop more almond extract for a stronger taste.

Very good cake. Doubled the glaze recipe to make the cake more moist.

Quick and easy, this gets 5 stars because my boyfriend loved it! I didn't have any amaretto so I used almond flavoring and coconut Barcardi rum. I also used the rum when making the glaze. I will make this again in the future...also dusting the cake with a little powdered sugar was sufficient decoration for me.

This cake has been a hit every time I make it, and it is the recipe. I serve it with whipped cream and berries when I want to dress it up.

I wasn't too impressed with this recipe but my husband really liked it. You definitely have to cut back on the bake time or it will come out burnt. Overall, it just tasted like a coffee cake with a hint of amaretto.

Glad i didn't leave the cake in the oven as long as suggested, was already dry when taken out 5 mins before time. Cake very fluffy and light though. Could use a little more taste.

DEFINITELY A KEEPER, GETS MANY RAVE REVIEWS. THE ONLY THING I DID WAS ADD ABOUT TWO TABLESPOONS OF BUTTER TO THE GLACE AS IT HELPS TO TONE DOWN THE SWEETNESS OF IT. A GREAT CAKE FOR SPECIAL EVENTS.

This recipe was fantastic! My daughter had it for her 13th birthday. But instead of the amaretto sauce she used chocolate syrup and absolutely adored it! And we had decided to make them as mini bunts and this was a big hit! Everyone loved their little bunt cakes!
