I double this recipe for one cake and quadruple it for two (plus a little extra for muffins.) I also put in double the amount of mango since I have so many but it's not necessary. It seems to me that this recipe would be wonderful with peaches also.<\/p>","CommentId":10,"DateRated":"08\/24\/2015 10:11","GUID":"aae02c50393e4277b9e4d0fb8598347c","MemberId":4852006,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"Patricia","SubmittedDate":"08\/24\/2015 10:11"},{"Comment":"
awesome!!! i doubled the recipe to get a larger cake & baked it for about 45 minutes at 375. Baking time mostly depends on your oven. I just tested it every few minutes after 30 minutes.<\/p>","CommentId":11,"DateRated":"06\/23\/2014 20:31","GUID":"e111e315c2994c06a8345fb7f2238d6c","MemberId":6343320,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"kano2626","SubmittedDate":"06\/23\/2014 20:31"},{"Comment":"
This is light and delicious!

Loved it! Tripled the recipe and made two 9 in cakes. Also left out the pecans and used pastry flour instead of all-purpose.<\/p>","CommentId":13,"DateRated":"08\/27\/2011 16:12","GUID":"ce339e6f459c47ca9a2a81ef718e0c80","MemberId":6147642,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"DarkestDay","SubmittedDate":"08\/27\/2011 16:12"},{"Comment":"
I doubled the recipe and used an 8 in. cake pan. I served it without any icing, whipped cream or powdered sugar. Everyone liked it.<\/p>","CommentId":14,"DateRated":"10\/08\/2010 15:59","GUID":"a7642503b22f4aee9acbc875bc44057d","MemberId":3791504,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"sunflowergwen","SubmittedDate":"10\/08\/2010 15:59"},{"Comment":"","CommentId":15,"DateRated":"09\/20\/2010 09:52","GUID":"D508768210BD4087A249C2CBFA1B84ED","MemberId":2084640,"Rating":0,"ScreenName":"patsy32@verizon.net","SubmittedDate":"09\/20\/2010 09:52"},{"Comment":"
Surprisingly excellent! The recipe came at just the right time -- I already had a mango cubed in the fridge, waiting to be used or eaten. I made it last night, nixed the pecans because I didn't have any and baked it in my convection oven. In 10 minutes we were watching it cool on the wire rack. I dusted the confectioner's sugar on and wow! It was extremely moist, not too sweet, and the mangos were perfect. I'd make it again in a heartbeat!<\/p>","CommentId":16,"DateRated":"09\/16\/2010 10:02","GUID":"4d49766d0ad04702b6fd7bd75d2fd385","MemberId":5006999,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"jcorkren","SubmittedDate":"09\/16\/2010 10:02"},{"Comment":"","CommentId":17,"DateRated":"09\/16\/2010 01:39","GUID":"e3124e2937464b91b47e57a496a08faf","MemberId":5295736,"Rating":1,"ScreenName":"REnriquez","SubmittedDate":"09\/16\/2010 01:39"},{"Comment":"
to answer your question, I'd make 3 batches, mix them together and divide between 2 9-inch pans and bake, perhaps for a little longer than stated for the 6\" pans.<\/p>","CommentId":18,"DateRated":"09\/15\/2010 17:06","GUID":"8E3183EB1229457EBC2A72A17FB9339C","MemberId":1233162,"Rating":0,"ScreenName":"murphsandy","SubmittedDate":"09\/15\/2010 17:06"},{"Comment":"
It's yummy - not too sweet so the powdered sugar and or the whip cream is a good idea. I added a little coconut to it and that was fine too.<\/p>","CommentId":19,"DateRated":"09\/15\/2010 11:28","GUID":"04ce4f44d57d4453a71ea7abd41208b4","MemberId":4687962,"Rating":4,"ScreenName":"teacherre","SubmittedDate":"09\/15\/2010 11:28"},{"Comment":"
I have a question, how would you increase this so it could be baked in a 9 inch cake pan. I don't have a 6 inch pan and don't have room for storage for more pans. If you have any idea how how this could be made so can fit standard size pans, please let me know.<\/p>","CommentId":20,"DateRated":"09\/15\/2010 11:16","GUID":"b8f8299b7f6340d79da0a71b58a83056","MemberId":5028997,"Rating":4,"ScreenName":"meanmary5","SubmittedDate":"09\/15\/2010 11:16"}]},"breadcrumb":[{"term_id":309177,"name":"Recipes","slug":"recipes","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":309112,"taxonomy":"categories-v2","description":"Browse Taste Recipes recipes by course, cooking style, cuisine, ingredient, holiday and more categories to find a new family-favorite recipe.","parent":0,"count":51683,"filter":"raw","term_order":"0","url":"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/"},{"term_id":310796,"name":"Dishes & Beverages","slug":"dishes-beverages","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":310731,"taxonomy":"categories-v2","description":"Wondering what to make?
