I personally love them the way they are; just made this cake again this week and it was really good (to me & husband). I am a super avid baker, and one thing I think is that desserts and which ones are our favorites is such a personal thing. We might all be able to tell a good recipe vs. a bad one, but when it comes to which ones just sing to us (and hey, those are only ones worth repeating, IMO - life is too short!), it's so personal. Maybe it has to do with taste memories, well, so many things; I love to think about things like that! I remember my best friend said that some bars I made were in her "top five" of all the things I've made, yet my husband and I didn't want them again. Go figure. Anyways, customizing the spices sounds so smart. (Or just moving on to another recipe if you're so inclined :)Jesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03149503511371513159noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8986801201760240722.post-32175032428561759462014-11-17T19:00:22.146-05:002014-11-17T19:00:22.146-05:00Isn't the cardamom special in this cake?

Just made this today, and for fun I made it side-by-side to the Cook’s Country Spice Cake and an old recipe from Better Homes and Gardens that I made probably 15 years ago. I loved the BHG recipe then, but boy were these new recipes better! This CI version was the spiciest of the bunch, with a medium crumb, and I loved the frosting. The CC version had that perfect cake crumb that I’ve tasted before from this company, with a more mild spice flavor, but still a buttery delicious cake. I will definitely be making BOTH of them again! I like your idea to up spices as desired to personal taste...so easy to do! I just love Cook’s Country – Cook’s Ilustrated – America’s Test Kitchen!
