Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    Such a good combination of flavors!

    I did not love this. I felt like the cake itself wasn't amazing and the whole frosting recipe is too much for the cake and I should not have just ploped it all on. It's not a bad cake and was easy and quick to make but I will most likely not be making this again.

    I took the cake out too early but managed to safe it putting it back in the oven later. I also seem to have put out the cream cheese and butter too long. The frosting was quite liquid. Next time I will only use slightly softened butter and cold cream cheese. Tastewise this was very nice, but not my favourite from this book Edit: I later learned that there might be an issue with European/german cream cheese turning liquid when mixed with powdered sugar, so it wasn’t an temperature issue.

    As others have said, this was really good, even without the candy topping. My only quibble is that an oil-based cake might be better, since the cake is chilled (and, like me, you're impatient and don't want to wait for the cake to sit at room temp for a bit).

    Shocked by how good this cake/frosting were. Now one of our favorites. Might be the best frosting I've ever made.

    This frosting is amazing!!! Everybody who tried this cake at the office asked for the recipe. This is a perfect alternative to all the banana bread recipes out there!
