Very yummy - But will cut the sugar quantities next time - just a bit too sweet for our liking. Gave this a 5 star rating though because less sugar is not really a big deal to modify. :)Thanks for sharing.

I am quite surprised with the rave reviews for this cake. The cake was so-so and the baking time was way off. The icing was way over the top on the sweet-o-meter. My grandsons liked it but it was so sweet non of the adults could finish it.

I made this cake for a dinner party over the weekend. It was so well liked that not only did everyone have seconds, they are still talking about it. I added a bit more cinnamon & nutmeg and used a 9-inch round cake pan. It needed to cook longer; 27 minutes. The icing was perfect! Already have a request from one of the quests (the birthday boy) to make it again.

Great cake! The icing made it a little on the sweet side but it was excellent and everyone loved it!

Everyone at my house liked this cake very much. I opted to serve it without the icing because of time constraints and cutting back on sugar- although I would like to try it some time. It made a nice cake to eat with your coffee--very moist and yummy.

We loved this cake. The frosting is a nice balance. It stays really moist even after several days. I did need to bake it longer. It is a keeper!!!

OMGoodness! This cake is AWESOME! The cake itself is dense but moist, not too sweet; however, the icing is a great balance. In fact, the icing recipe itself is worth having for bundt cakes and even donuts. You have to try this recipe! You'll be glad you did! An absolute keeper!

I added a chopped apple and walnuts. I had to bake it an additional 20 minutes as it was raw in the center after 20 minutes in the oven. Perhaps the apple brought too much moisture. Someone in their review described 'the oatmeal bringing a good crunch to the cake'. This appealled to me. My cake had NO crunch! The first day I would say it was just an ok cake. The next day is was so soggy nobody would eat it. I threw the remainder. I will not make this recipe again.
