The cake was moist and had great flavor. The top was crusty and not attractive but icing took care of that. With the length of time listed to bake the bottom seemed a little dark and it tended to stick to the pan. The recipe didn't call for a greased pan but I used a release spray anyway. The cake was well received and I will most likely be making this again. It was a fun recipe to try for PAC
