This basically was like just cake. It definetly needs more cranberry to it and a streusal. I think I'll tweak the recipe a bit and add orange zest some orange juice and make a streusal on top and swirled in with lots more cranberries. I may even just add fresh whole cranberries to it. The cake moistness was right on. Thumbs up for that!

We have been baking this cake for 40 years. Some hints: Make sure your baking powder is fresh. Try not to get the cranberry sauce close to the edge of the pan - it sticks like glue. If you don't have a non-stick pan, line the bottom with waxed paper. Make an icing with confectioner's sugar, almond extract and a little milk and drizzle it over the top. We always get rave reviews for this cake.

If I had just made the stupid recipe the way it was supposed to be made and not over complicated things .... I saw some complained about there not being enough batter, so I decided to bake in a mini bundt pan - wrong move on my part as they fell apart while trying to remove and looked horrible BUT ! taste was sensational ! Seriously, we absolutely loved the tang of the cranberries against the sweetness of the cake. I used homemade berry sauce and (grin) failed yogurt in leu of sour cream. Will definately make again - only NOT in mini bundt pans. Note to self: cake mix is light and fluffy, not dense.

Nice coffee cake. I used homemade cranberry sauce and it worked just fine. I also made it in a bundt pan. It was a bit crumbly and hard to get out of the pan, but delicious for all that. Thanks for the recipe!

It made a small bundt cake - needed more batter or something. Not sure if we will make it again. It was good ...but not great. Like, I'm not going to lie in bed and think "oh that was soooo good." No, it's almost forgettable. And this coming from someone who just loves cranberries.
