I made this the first time in 2006. I was taking it to a potluck so I got a little creative and drizzled melted chocolate and sprinkled chopped pecans all over, it made it look like a decadant cake. This has become a favorite for family and friends. It is also requested for my daughters birthday every year. She says that is the only gift she wants. We love this cake!

I baked this cake for Thanksgiving last week, and I got nothing but rave reviews--one relative even asked me to make it again for Christmas! The one thing that really threw me was that the batter was really thick; I was worried that it wouldn't rise or would be hard inside (i made a red velvet cake once and biting into a hockey puck would have been easier). I kept seeing Rachel in that episode of Friends where she tries to make the trifle and ends up with a weird beef custard thing and having people tell me it tasted like feet. I was so glad when I opened the oven to check on it and found that it had risen really well (it was so tall!). When I first put the frosting on the cake it was a little runny, but it didn't take long for it to firm up, and unlike one of the other reviewers, i had more than enough to cover the entire cake, however, i was afraid that this would not be the case (next time, i'm going to put more in the middle instead of 3 layers of frosting on top).

This cake was very good and with a nice creamy, soft caramel tasting icing. I did not have any problems with the icing being runny as I cooked mine for about 3 to 5 minutes or until it had the consistency of maybe creamy peanut butter. In fact, I was able to nicely and easily spread the caramel over the first layer, and I had a bit left for the top of the second layer. It did not drizzle at all like in the picture because of the thicker consistency of the icing. Next time, I might want to have more icing so as to cover entire cake. I will probably double the icing recipe, thus reserving 1 cup instead of 1/2 cup of the batter and doubling the ingredients for the icing. This should not affect the cake itself since the cake was high enough that an additional 1/2 cup of batter set aside would not affect height of cake. I definitely recommend this cake. It is very tasty and should satisfy anyone who wants to eat a good caramel cake.

This cake was very good and a big hit with everyone. Only problem was the frosting was very runny. I just kept adding powdered sugar until it was the right consistency. I definately would make this again.

I have to say, I didn't like this cake at all. The cake itself was alright, but the caramel icing was just terrible. It didn't taste anything like caramel, but tasted like the cake batter that you add to it.

This cake WAS easy to prepare...fun too, me and my 3 year old made this and I actually did the suggested fresh chocolate drissle as suggested. It tasted wonderful and looked horrible. The batter was very thick so my one pan baked kinda lopsided without me noticing before I put it in the oven. The frosting was extremely runny. I even chilled it extra long to try and thicken it up...some what worked. It wasn't thick, I was expecting to spread it, instead I just ended up pouring it on and letting it drizzle down the sides bit by bit. My next adventure with this particular cake is measuring off the batter before it's baked and thickening up the frosting. BTW the chocolate, although welcomed, was a slight distraction..the caramel frosting can stand alone any day.
