This cake is Wonderful. I have made it now with differant cake mixes,,,the yellow, lemon, pineapple & white as the base. All work out nicely. I wanted a bit more fruit so I added in a small can of drained pineapple as well as the fruit cocktail. Yum... Also... I increased the topping (Brown sugar & nut's) to 2/3 cup, each. ( It's dessert, RIGHT !!! ) This is a cake worth being called a dessert. Very refreshing from the chocolate and other 'regular' cakes. Make this cake and I Promise that you WILL be asked for this recipe. Also I have served this alone, with vanilla ice cream, (my favorite) as well as with more chilled fruit. Thanks for this recipe. I'm already passing it along...

This is the best cake that I have had in a long time. It stays moist for days. I used pecans instead of walnuts , but followed the rest of the recipe as is. I really had my doubts when I poured the milk mixture over the top, but it worked out perfectly. This is a keeper!

The name is misleading, since this cake was so tasty. It was a big hit with all our tasters. Our Guest Chef, Alice thought it was easy to make, despite one egg getting away from her.

This cake was even better the second day. I didn't have evaporated milk so I used 1 cup of 2% and boiled it to reduce it by half, leaving me with 1/2 cup. It turned out wonderful. Thanks for the great simple and delicious recipe.

This cake is surprisingly good! I didn't bother with the frosting, brown sugar or nuts, and we all enjoyed it very much. So easy and tasty, I'll be making it again.

This cake is the most delicious and moist cake you can find. It is also a nice change to the typical fosted cake. I was afraid it would not be sweet enough with out frosting...but was I wrong! This is a killer cake. I think my husband and I ate 1/2 of it the first night :)

I made this cake yesterday and it is delicious. I poked holes in the top after it was done and poured the glaze over it. After an hour or so, it was bliss! I preferred eating it with whipped cream.

This was my 1st time making this cake and it was well worth it! It was so easy and a big hit at my house. My personal opinion is, the cake is better the 2nd day. I will definitely make this again!

When I was making this cake, I thought after putting the Brown sugar and pecans on top of the batter and putting it in the oven that I was absolutely going to hate this cake. First. the only addition that I added to this cake was Lemon Pudding Mix in the Cake mix. There are many versions of this cake and this one I chose to make. IT WAS AWESOME! I thought I had died and gone to heaven. When I made the glaze for the top of the cake, I was sure this cake was not going to work. But I was very wrong. This cake looks really sweet. But it truly is NOT. The glaze melts the brown sugar in the cake. I also poked holes in the cake before I spread the glaze on top of the still warm cake! I brought this to work the next day and they ate it up! I will make this recipe again. Just Great!

Very good. Recipe as is except I was out of evaporated milk and I used regular milk, came out great. We did not use the glaze on top, we ate it plain and it was great, sweet enough from the brown sugar on top
