Very tasty. Only problem is the topping doesn't stick to the cake very well. Next time I might try to swirl some into the batter. Have to use a spoon to catch the falling topping. Didn't let it sit in fridge overnight as husband wanted some before going to bed. Just as moist the next morning. Will make again.
