but that's just me.

[lark]

4. Can't stand fruitcakes.

Both my grandmothers used to make them and send them to us. We gave the cakes to the Mission every year so they didn't go to waste. These seem to be either the love them or hate them kind of desert.

9. Desert?

I always thought they were the main course.

[Phoenix61]

12. I have a dozen aging in Capt Morgan's Spiced Rum.

I tweaked the recipe and use dried fruit instead of that weird candied stuff.

[yellowdogintexas]

43. I use dried fruit also, as many kinds as I can find

Lots of nuts too.

My recipe uses orange juice for the liquid part and lots of sweet spices. I age mine in Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey

Love love love it! My mom's carrot cake is also spectacular.

5. Italian Creme Cake

Or maybe it's lemon cake. Or maybe German chocolate. Or wait, it's Chocolate Ganache.

It's probably one of those.

Edited to add: Bailey's Irish Creme cake

[Cirque du So-What]

6. Can't choose

but I like moist cakes. Those made with pudding, applesauce, soda pop, jam, etc. are my favorites.

I want it to glisten like this..

[Rorey]

7. Yes, a moist, dense cake for me. NT

[catbyte]

46. Make a Wacky Cake. It's the moistest chocolate cake I've ever eaten. It does glisten. Recipe below.

And it stays moist for days if you put it in a baggie and refrigerate it. It was good for a week.

[Bayard]

16. I never met a chocolate cake I didn't like

But coconut cake, and carrot cake with nuts and cream cheese frosting are also favorites.

[redstatebluegirl]

17. My grannies coconut cake. YUMMMMY

[whistler162]

18. Between a

Tomato Soup cake and a Chocolate cake with chocolate icing.

[smirkymonkey]

19. I like very moist, light cakes with a mousse or cream filling, such as a

lemon cream cake or a dark chocolate cake I make w/ real whipped cream between the layers. I also sometimes like a homemade buttercream frosting, but not spread too thickly because it's so sweet. Carrot cake w/ cream cheese frosting is pretty good too! Oh, and anything with fresh fruit or fruit puree in between the layers or on top.

[MFM008]

20. The "any" cake

[SeattleVet]

21. Cassata, without a doubt.

31. Mom's "Rocky Mountain Apple Cake"

Don't know the ingredients, except for raw apples, walnuts, nutmeg. Moist and Delishhh!

[catbyte]

32. Wacky cake. It's the first thing I ever baked when I was 10--and its vegan

It's a moist cake that you mix right in the baking pan. It doesn't contain eggs or milk so it's vegan. It's utterly delicious. It gets its leavening from the baking soda and vinegar. You can eat it frosted or unfrosted. It's moist & flavorful enough to eat plain.

WACKY CAKE

The recipe, which uses no butter, eggs or milk, was popular during WWII when rationing was prevalent.

INGREDIENTS:

1½ cup all-purpose flour
1 cup sugar
4 tbsp (rounded) unsweetened cocoa powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
6 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 cup water

Sift together flour, sugar, cocoa, baking soda & salt. Make 3 wells in the flour mixture. Pour the cider vinegar, oil, & vanillla in each hole. Pour water over the whole mess and stir until combined. Bake in a preheated 350F oven for 26-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

34. This looks worth trying! America's test kitchen had a flourless chocolate cake, but it took FOREVER

Between waiting and praying over it, so I never tried it. But as you can imagine, without the flour, it was RICH!

[catbyte]

45. You really should. It's easier than a boxed cake mix and so much better. I know I said that

you can eat it without frosting, but who wants a chocolate cake without frosting? I make an Italian buttercream and flavor it with Amoretti Artisan Natural Raspberry flavor then mix in dehydrated raspberries reconstituted in a little Framboise or Chambord. It really is to die for. This is my grandmother's recipe. I've seen others on the Web that called for white vinegar. I ran out of cider vinegar once and substituted it with white vinegar and it wasn't nearly as good. I don't know why, but it just didn't taste as rich.

[LakeArenal]

36. All cake. Many mentioned above.

Fresh cake. No stale cake.

Weird part, don’t like frosting that much. Cream cheese and chocolate in small doses. No frosting roses for me please.

[Piasladic]

37. Cheese Cake -Ny style

The thicker the better !

[Thunderbeast]

39. Simple pound cake

With raspberries and whipped cream.

[surrealAmerican]

40. flourless chocolate cake

Done right, it's texture is somewhere between a custard and fudge.

[Tikki]

41. Yellow cake with white butter cream icing.

[yellowdogintexas]

47. Too many to list.

I love to bake and this is prime baking season for me, what with silent auctions to bake for, last year's live auction cakes to bake (because everyone wants their cake during the holidays) and cake for family things.

I will be taking a chocolate pound cake to Thanksgiving (my husband's grandmother's recipe) and a couple of other pound cakes to the silent auction. I know I will be baking a carrot cake and one other cake for one couple.

I'll probably do another chocolate cake for Christmas with the family.

I do love a good coconut cake, with pineapple and coconut mixed in with the frosting between the layers. We used to bake a German Chocolate Cake, a coconut cake and a jam cake every Christmas. In a small Southern town you always need stuff for those drop in visitors.

If I am out to eat and want dessert, I will usually get pie.
