The recipe is excellent as is with no substitutions or changes. I made it for dessert for a Boyscout Court of Honor and everyone gobbled it up and went back for seconds. The *only* thing I changed was in the frosting because I personally like a creamier less sweet flavor. I used a full stick of butter, half the sugar and 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract.

Excellent recipe, I prefer to use Cream Cheese Frosting II with a dash of allspice added for a less sweet, deliciously cream-cheesey frosting.

Absolutely delicious but next time I will use less oil, as it was a little too heavy for me but everyone raved about it!

I made 9 servings and put it in a loaf pan. Also, I left out the nuts on the topping. This was really good! Lastly, I used fresh picked baby carrots from the garden.

I left out the nuts. we are a no nut family at my house and this was awesome! I made it for my daughters first birthday. I also cut the oil in half and used half applesauce. Loved it!

This cake is really good!! :) I made it as 30 cupcakes, and frosted them as directed. Delicious! I followed the recipe exactly, except I added 1/4 tsp of nutmeg like the other reviewers suggested and cooked them for 15 minutes. MMMMMM...i'm about to eat another one!

I have only made one or two scratch cakes in my lifetime and this one was DELICIOUS! I made it for a birthday and it was a big hit. I used walnuts instead of pecans, and added raisins and some orange zest. I also put coconut in the frosting. Thank you!! I will definitely make this one again!

This is a great cake. I made a layer cake out of mine, excellent. I don't generally change ingredients or make substitutions on a recipe until I've made it a few times, but I did reduce the amount of sugar I used in the frosting. Even with the reduction, it is VERY sweet...will use less next time, but that is a matter of taste. Still a great recipe!
