I was disappointed with the cream cheese mixture. Mine didn’t stay in the middle it dropped to the bottom.
Awesome recipe and easy to make. Made it for a friend’s surprise birthday party and it was the highlight of the party. Cake is moist and I like it that the cream cheese frosting is folded into the mixture, which adds a little surprise. Cake was finished before I had a chance to take picture…
This cake is sooo good! I have to admit in putting it together I thought it was going to be a dud. The batter was super thick! Almost like cookie dough. So I prepared for the worst. But to my surprise, it tastes phenomenal!! No frosting needed. I love it!! P. S. Wouldn’t allow me to add my picture of finished product.
No icing? This recipe didn’t need it! Cream cheese filling inside with powdered sugar on the top! Great for a pot luck and everyone raved about it!
