If you're looking for a traditional cornbread flavor, this is not the cake for you. It's more of "another option" if you're bored of yellow cake or whatever. I didn't have oil so I substituted shortening. I detect a bit of an aftertaste as well (sort of somewhere between mayo/buttery something or other). The cake did turn out moist - however it took me 20 minutes longer to cook than the recipe directed. Could be 'cause I used a glass baking pan instead of Metal/Cast Iron. Overall I would probably give this recipe 3 1/2 stars but it only allows me three. It's a decent cake, but not incredibly good. I'd make it again if I was really really bored of all other recipe's, but otherwise, I'm on the search for something better.
