"I liked this recipe alot, made cupcakes instead of cake. I would bake if doing cupcakes for 20 minutes or until an inserted toothpick comes out clean. I would also add 1/2 cup of applesauce for a more moist cake." - adw899Yield: 8 Ready in 1 hours, 30 minutes

Very good recipe. I agree that it needs the amount of baking soda and I'm not a big fan of the icing recipe... other than that I love the taste and consistency of the cake

Mine turned out a little rubbery but excellent flavour.

Probably 1 tsp of baking soda is needed for this recipe just based on other similar recipes.

This would be a better recipe if the ingredients list included how much baking soda was needed.
