Excellent cake! Be sure to monitor the baking time carefully as it can easily become overdone. Appreciate sharing the recipe!

I baked for 33 minutes, and it turned out perfectly. Instead of water, I used coffee, which added a delicious twist. Next time, I plan to use Amaretto liquor instead of almond extract.

The cake is not what I expected. It's more almond-flavored than Amaretto, though it smells stronger than it tastes. Be careful with the baking time, as it may need less than stated. I might consider using real Amaretto instead of water next time for a tastier result. Overall, it's just an average cake.

I'm not quite sure what happened with this recipe. Despite following the reviews and baking it for a shorter period of time as suggested, and ensuring I removed it from the oven right on time, the cake turned out dry and crumbly. I suspect the issue might have been the cake mix I used. It didn't resemble a pound cake at all. I don't plan on making this recipe again.

Great! I prepared this cake for my church's cake auction and it was sold for $12.00. I also made it again for my son's sports banquet, and this time I added maraschino cherries to the bottom of the bundt cake.

Excellent! The subtle flavor is very smooth, and the cake remained moist for several days.

I have baked this cake multiple times, and each time it has been a hit with everyone. I believe it is the tastiest cake I have ever made, and it's incredibly easy to prepare. I like to finish it off with a chocolate glaze, which takes it to the next level of deliciousness!
