My great-aunt gave this recipe to my mother when I was a little boy and it's been a an old family favorite ever since. Interesting to see all the variations on here, but this recipe is the one that we used with the exception of the added lemon zest, which is a great addition! I'll be adding that going forward for a bit more lemon zing. Super moist, delicious cake and a guaranteed "failsafe" recipe. You can't mess this one up! Love it. -
OUTSTANDING CAKE, this! Made according to the recipe, although I did double the amount of glaze ingredients & then used ALMOST all of that! The combo of lemon & apricot flavors is very nice & the recipe a definite keeper! [Tagged, made & reviewed for one of my adopted orphans in the current Pick A Chef]
