My ten year old daughter made this last night for dessert. It was delicious. We'll definitely be keeping this recipe to make again.

This is a great recipe to make without dairy or eggs. The cake is moist and the cherries are a nice alternative to frosting. We buy Oregon canned cherries and make the filling ourselves. Great cake!

I brought this to thanksgiving and ended up taking 3/4 of the cake home. Not a favorite in my family.

I took this to a party, and the men absolutely loved it. I thought it was good, but a good plop of ice cream or whipped cream would have helped immensely.

Oh my! Thank you so much for this absolutely delicious Recipe! It was amazing! I added some Mini Chocolate Chips, but it's totally awesome without, too. I also used this Recipe to for Cupcakes (without the Cherry Pie Filling).

Delicious cake that was a big hit with my family. I had trouble with the cherry topping, as many of the cherries were still in the pan after I inverted it (and I had pre-sprayed the pan with Pam). It didn't matter though--everyone gobbled this cake up! As well, I used plain white vinegar instead of distilled vingear and the cake was still fine. I would definitely recommend this for everyone -- and especially to people with egg and milk allergies.

Made this recipe for my family last night. Thumbs up and down. The cake it'self is very heavy, and the cherries on top don't taste tasty after they cooled and the next day was event sticker. Maybe it's best hot out of the oven? I also had to bake it about 20 min. longer than called for.

Wow, this is goooood! I am amazed it is very moist, like a brownies. I didn't have vanilla, so I used almond ext. & it was great. Next time I will add chocolate chips like others suggest.

This is a terrific cake! Ds is allergic to milk, soy, and eggs, so baking can be a little tricky... but this cake is so easy! People never believe that it's made without all the standard baking ingredients. It stays nice & moist, even if you leave the cherries out & use them as a topping later. Thanks for sharing this one!

Three stars for the dairy-free, egg-free recipe; No stars for the taste. Even with Cool Whip this dessert was a disaster! Blech.

I made this for my egg/dairy allergic toddler's birthday. Nobody could tell that it wasn't a "real" cake. VERY moist and fudgy.....I was pleasantly surprised :) I added a few choc chips to the batter and this was SO chocalatey! I was extremely skeptical....I am always looking for "safe" dessert recipes for my little guy that are GOOD, and this was by far the tastiest! Thanks for a great recipe! Definately a keeper :)

I made this for a lactose-intolerant friend and I was skeptical that it wouldn't taste like "real cake," but I have to admit: It was really tasty!

This is a fantastic recipe! I am on a dairy free diet but can have eggs so I added one egg and left out the vinegar. It was such a yummy moist cake and very chocolatey - It was a hit for all my friends!

This was great! I am allergic to dairy and eggs, and I am also not able to eat gluten (wheat, rye, barley). As you can imagine, cake is hard to come by for me. I made this for my birthday & I brought it to work when we were celebrating. I substituted the wheat flour with gluten free flour (Bob's Red Mill All Purpose GF Flour) and a tsp of xanthan gum. I also added dairy free chocolate chips into the batter, and I drizzled some chocolate syrup on the top when it was done. And it was great! It got eaten before the "regular" cake did! (Addition 3 years later) I STILL get requests for this at work - even on other people's birthdays - and people ask me for the recipe all the time.

although it looked good and tasted ok, it tasted nothing like chocolate. as a result, i had alot leftover. the texture of the cake was great though. if i make this again i'll be dumping a lot of chocolate chips into the batter or melted chocolate.

A friend of mine at work is vegan and often misses out on the yummy treats that we have, so this cake worked perfect! I made this for a work birthday celebration with raspberry topping instead. I also used whole-wheat pastry flour and replaced half of the oil with applesauce. This was a very soft, moist, and flavor full cake. My chocoholic husband loved it even though he refuses to call it cake because of it’s vegan qualities. Thank you for the wonderful vegan friendly cake. :)
