I added as suggested a tsp of almond extract and some slivered almonds. I used a white cake mix instead of yellow and it was very good. I set the timer for an hour in the oven but found it was ready to come out after about 40 minutes.

As the submitter suggested, I made this cake for St. Patrick's Day because I was looking for a green dessert. It was quick, easy and quite delicious.

this was delicious! the crust was nice and chewy while the inside was very moist. i used yellow cake that had pudding in the mix, i think that added to the moistness. i also added a teaspoon of almond extract. i didn't make the glaze, the cake is just fine on its own!

BE SURE AND REDUCE THE BAKING TIME!!! I followed the recipe exactly and the taste is very good, however the cake was extremely over baked! Next time I would follow the baking directions that are listed on the cake mix box. I would also add some almond extact to the cake as well as the glaze.

This is a nice, moist cake that got great reviews when I shared it with a group of friends. The batter ends up more yellow than green once baked, but since I tinted the glaze a pretty green, it was much appreciated as St. Patrick's Day treat!

Wonderfully moist and flavorful! It cooked in 68 minutes. I added a tsp of almond flavoring and a little cinnamon to the batter. Also instead of the glaze I dusted it with powdered sugar. The crust is great on this cake; maybe I'll add walnuts next time. Lastly, if you want a deeper green for holiday flair add about 7 drops of green food coloring to your batter. Thanks for the recipe, I will make it again.
