My son found this recipe 3 years ago and made it for me on Mother's Day. I have requested it for my birthday and Mother's Day ever since! It is AMAZING! He also makes it for family gatherings and it is requested for those now too.

As written, this cake has too much oil. I cooked it at 325 for 70 minutes and doubled cinnamon, per reviews. I did not have any applesauce so I could not sub. it for the oil. It is worth trying again with the 1cup oil, 1/2 cup applesauce. Maybe then I can give it 5 stars. After baking, it still tasted too "wet" for me. Nice taste though.

This cake is FABULOUS! I followed the recipe exactly...I'm not really sure what I did wrong with the caramel glaze, because it was a little runny. But it didn't matter, because the cake was fabulous with or without the glaze!

This cake has a nice taste but the batter is very thick. Once it's cooked, the inside is moist but the outside hard and crusty. Didn't love it!

This cake was very good! I didn't make any changes. The oven time was perfect (for my oven.) I made it for Thanksgiving and the day after it tasted even better!

Delicious and so moist. I did make changes other people suggested. Baked at 325 for 70 minutes. Used cinnamon applesauce for 1/3 of the oil. doubled the cinnamon. also, I just spooned sauce over individual pieces of cake, not over entire cake. I had to travel with the cake and it was easier this way.
