  1. This was a hit with friends at a Christmas gathering this weekend!Made according to directions and results were superb. Was easy to make and the almonds made for a beautiful cake. I will keep this recipe to make for potlucks during the holidays!
     
  2. This was an excellent way to use up holiday eggnog. It makes a pretty presentation with the almonds on top, and tastes just like a glass of eggnog. Thanks for sharing this seasonal treat!
     
  3. Used leftover eggnog in this cake - it was delicious. Didn't have rum or rum extract on hand, so substituted Southern Comfort, doubling the amount called for (due to a previous comment). It came out excellent; makes a very rich cake, but not heavy. Used 1/2 of Eggnog glaze recipe # 84417 which was also very good.
     
  4. This is a very nice, moist cake. The almonds on the top lend a nice touch. To be honest, though, I couldn't really taste the rum or the nutmeg and I used the amounts indicated. Otherwise, it is a very good cake.
     
  5. This is a really good cake, very moist and not too sweet. I used a gluten-free vanilla cake mix, and the whole recipe was very easy to put together. I made the eggnog from scratch, using recipe #146707 "Eggnog for Entertaining". Next time I'll make some sort of sugary glaze to drizzle on top.

Hey there!~ My name is Crystal. I am 19,and living in Florida. I really love to cook,& bake all the time for my family.I just get so much enjoyment out of it! There is just something about the great aroma throughout the house when you bake something,creating special memories in the kitchen! A little more about me: I am a strict vegetarian,(almost vegan!,heh)but of course my whole family is not,so I cook just about anything! Other than cooking-I like to read,surf the net and create art. My favorite websites are: www.ebay.com & www.witchvox.com (I'm wiccan) Of course,the Zaar has become my favorite website! I love how friendly the people are and how interactive this place is!
