I made this cake using a fluted tube pan because I don't have 9 in. pans and I baked it for about 50 minutes,it did not rise that much,so cut it horizontally only once,when I tasted the cake it self it tasted a bit too sweet for my taste but once I iced it the cream cheese balanced the sweetness making it taste so yummy,I will definitely make it again.

Tried this recipe twice and both times the cake tore apart when transferring out of the pans.

This cake takes a smidge of time, but well worth the effort! I took it to a friends house for dessert and it received RAVE reviews!

Awesome cake! For years I have been making a Raspberry Walnut Torte that if the same recipe as this just with raspberry instead of Apricot and Walnust instead of Almonds. Both ways are AMAZING! It is time consuming but easy to make! Enjoy!

I second and third all of the raving on this recipe. I've made this cake numerous times, and it's been a hit every time.I made the cupcake variation as well, and to give the frosting a little bit of texture, I crumbled waffle cone pieces throughout. Wonderful end-result!
