  1. this cake was alright, but i found it very dry, and flavourless [i even added a little extra vanilla]. i dont know if i'll make it again.
     
  2. I'm giving this recipe five stars because it was easily made vegan. While it didn't have a lot of flavor (I'll make a note to use more vanilla next time), the batter was a wonderful consistency and it baked and rose nicely. I made cupcakes and they turned out moist and fluffy. The icing I made was sweet and flavorful, so that made up for the miminal flavor in the cupcakes themselves.
     
  3. I substituted the shortening for margarine.....awesome recipe I used it to make cup cakes they came out awesome!
     
  4. every time I made this cake the center wouldn't get cooked at ALL!!!!! :[
     
  5. I've made this twice and got very good results each time for an easy, moist and delicately flavored cake. I don't like using shortening so 1/2 cup canola oil was substituted. The first time I made the recipe, I didn't have enough milk so I used powdered buttermilk with 1 cup water and adjusted the leavening just in case to 1 1/2 tsp baking powder and 1 1/2 tsp baking soda. We actually liked that version even better. Both times I baked them in a greased 8 X 8 pan for 40-45 minutes.
