These are very moist, and so far I haven’t found anyone who doesn’t love them! The best cake I’ve ever had…can’t believe I MADE IT!!! It’s so moist and fluffy and the perfect amount of sweet-I used less sugar. The frosting is what makes it so good I added walnuts on top as well….next time I make them I may add raisins. It makes lot of bars…. enjoy!
