I tried this cake at a work party and it was a big hit because of how delicious it was. I got the recipe from a friend. It is a moist cake, with a hint of apricot flavor. I just recently served it for my Super Bowl Party and I had so many compliments. So if you are looking for something new and GOOD, try this out and let me know what you think.
