I rely on applesauce to keep this crowd-pleasing cake tender and moist. The blend of nuts, cranberries and apples complements the subtle hint of wheat flour for terrific taste.-Martha Pollock, Oregonia, Ohio

The cake was good, but the frosting was a bit too rich for my taste. I think I'll try a different frosting next time.

This cake was a bit too dense for my taste. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

Not a fan of this recipe. The cake was dry and the frosting was too sweet. I won't be making it again.
