This cake is very delicious and moist. It is a bit dense and doesn\u2019t raise very much in the oven.

I'd prepared this recipe on 8\/5\/24. I used Fuji apples, 1\/2 cup milk, soured and part butterscotch chips and chopped pecans instead of chopped walnuts. I used three loaf pans and baked 50 minutes.

I made this cake five days ago for my husband and myself. There are only a couple of pieces left and they are still absolutely delicious. There is not too much sugar - it is cake after all! The brown sugar did not make the icing gritty. I don't know if it was the brown sugar or cream cheese, but the cake has been covered in the refrigerator and the frosting is still creamy. Most frostings get a hard shell on them after a few days, but not this one. I made the cake exactly as the recipe instructed - no variations. It is a beautiful and very delicious cake. For personal preference, next time I will make my own pumpkin pie spice blend with a little less nutmeg and probably leave the nuts off the top. They were delicious, but the cake is full of nuts and I just don't need the extra calories.

I can't call it a spice cake as it was really a nut cake. 3 cups total, really? I cut it down to 2 cups total, so still one and a half cups were too much in the cake, reserved half cup on the frosting. Was a little dense, but happy I cut the sugar to one and a half cups! By the way, by the time I got the frosting creamy without the sugary grit, my mixer burnt out! Frosting delicious though.","CommentId":6,"DateRated":"09\/15\/2020 18:27","GUID":"b1088a05d3ad4138a0c03822dce21d9d","MemberId":9030304,"Rating":3,"ScreenName":"Jane","SubmittedDate":"09\/15\/2020 18:27"},{"Comment":"I made this recipe exactly as instructed.

I made this cake five days ago for my husband and myself. There are only a couple of pieces left and they are still absolutely delicious. There is not too much sugar - it is cake after all! The brown sugar did not make the icing gritty. I don't know if it was the brown sugar or cream cheese, but the cake has been covered in the refrigerator and the frosting is still creamy. Most frostings get a hard shell on them after a few days, but not this one. I made the cake exactly as the recipe instructed - no variations. It is a beautiful and very delicious cake. For personal preference, next time I will make my own pumpkin pie spice blend with a little less nutmeg and probably leave the nuts off the top. They were delicious, but the cake is full of nuts and I just don't need the extra calories. I highly recommend this recipe.","CommentId":24,"DateRated":"09\/12\/2019 19:16","GUID":"6ff04ba291964ac0afab5a7e61093abc","MemberId":9605981,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"Teresa","SubmittedDate":"09\/12\/2019 19:16"},{"Comment":"","CommentId":25,"DateRated":"09\/06\/2019 12:55","GUID":"249c1fd29c754aa39f486e39d778ae29","MemberId":7998705,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"Darla02","SubmittedDate":"09\/06\/2019 12:55"},{"Comment":"Seems like a lot of prep time but then the results look too good to waste any time preparing it in my kitchen!
