  1. This just wasn't for us. The cake turned out fine but wasn't our taste.
     
  2. This recipe is a keeper! Cream cheese icing was to die for! Family loved it!
     
  3. Wish there was more stars to use. I loved it. I smelled so good. I made it for a class and topped it coconut buttercream frosting. I have had 3 requests for this cake. 1 for a birthday and 2 for the recipe. I love this site. Thanks
     
  4. Based on the reviews of others, I was confident this was going to be a great cake. I followed the recipe exactly, but my cake turned out extremely heavy and dense (maybe it's supposed to be this way???) I ended up adding an extra 12 minutes baking time (my oven temp is correct-I use an oven thermometer to check), so I am not sure what happened here....I can say it had a wonderfully, yummy taste. I just wish it was a bit lighter....OK - I served this for dessert, but without the icing. I made a strawberry coulis, which I poured over each slice. I then added some low-fat vanilla pudding over the coulis and garnished each slice with low- fat Cool Whip. This went over BIG, so I am updating to 4 stars (from my previous 2). To me, the denseness of the cake was a perfect foil for the toppings I used (and highly recommend).
     
  5. Delicious! I added cream cheese to the icing as suggested by others.

  1. This is the most delicious cake I have ever had!!!! I love anything strawberry though. Everyone who tried it loved it and now I have to make it again on tuesday for a co-worker's birthday. The only change I made was to use cool whip to frost the cake instead of the icing. DELICIOUS!!!!!
     
  2. A former co-worker made this for me for my birthday and gave me the recipe. OUTSTANDING! I have since made this cake for current co-workers and it is now EXPECTED of me when a birthday approaches. Instead of the icing, I use milk chocolate frosting and top the cake with hand-dipped chocolate strawberries to make it really special. It is a HUGE hit!
     

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I live in a rural area of Oklahoma (ok, it's all rural!) I am currently working at a law office but hope to be staying at home with children one day. I love to singing and cooking. My favorite cookbook would probably be Stir-Ups (a locally made cookbook). My passions includes my Saviour Jesus Christ, reading in His Word and my family. My biggest pet peave is a dirty kitchen and if I had a month off work I'd probably sleep in and go to a massage parlor everyday.
