this recipe was awesome! made it on a cold icky sunday afternoon...it turned out wonderfully. all the ingredients on hand-except for the nuts i could have sworn i had!! instead of the nuts i mixed a couple handfuls of butterscotch chips in with the brown sugar...and that tasted great! i too took some of the reviewer's advice and cut back on the lemon juice&added some vanilla to the cream cheese filling. hubby took the rest of it to work monday to keep it out of my reach (i'd asked him to, lol); it was gone in no time. thanks for this recipe!

I took this to breakfast fellowship at our church. My son said it looked so good and tasted so good that his friends thought I had bought it. There must be a compliment in there some place.

My very picky daughter loved this but I thought it had several problems. The baking time was way off - I really don't know how long I ended up cooking it, and it still was a little underdone. The cake was dense and heavy, just a touch shy of gummy. The filling was really tart, and, for a second, I thought I forgot to add the confectioners sugar. The only sweetness to this cake came from the topping.

I took this one to work and it was very well received! :) They all really liked it and have since asked for it again and again!

It was OK... I thought the batter didn't have much flavor after baking (although, it tasted great beforehand). I liked the filling though. It needs "lots of glaze," according to my husband. I don't think I'll make it again - I'll make something with more of a fruit filling next time.

Well, I tried this out today and it was great. Mine also took longer to bake (50 minutes). Hubby liked it alot, too because it had just the right sweetness and he even liked the tartness of the filling. I would have prefered it to be less tart and more sweet =). I left out the cinamon-pecan topping as hubby doesn't like cinamon. I might just dust with powdered sugar next time. Thanks for the recipe.

Very good. I will increase the amount of filling next time I make this as one of the previous bakers suggested. Mine also took longer to bake. 45-50 min.

The cake was good. The filling had a bit too much tartness from the lemon juice so I'd cut back on that some. I'd let it sit longer in the pan after the recommended cooling time. It was difficult to transfer to a plate nicely with the filling not completely cooled! :) Yummy though.

I brought this to work and it was a hit! I did have to mix the topping with a glaze to get it to stick to the top. I will definitely make this again...soon!
