Yummy!!! The cake was similiar to a moist banana bread. The cake and cranberry filling would be a great breakfast treat. I LOVE rum but it over powered the cake. Next time I will use half or omit all together, not really needed.

OH MY GOSH this cake is good! Leave it to Sandra to take leftovers, a cake mix, some extracts, and create something truly inspiring. I confess, I doubted just how sweet potato casserole, cranberry sauce, coconut, and rum extracts were all going to go together. Beautifully, that's the answer. My only departure from the recipe was I only added 1 tsp. of rum extract to the icing, but if you like a strong alcohol taste, it really could tolerate the 1 1/2 tsp. Kudos to you, Sandy!

Do not use the whole 1 1/2 tsp of rum extract. It is way too overpowering and ruins the cake. Use 1/2 tsp or substitute with vanilla. Also use more cranberry berry sauce thats the best part.

Everyone loved this cake this thanksgiving. It was moist and delicious and easy to make. I substitued the cranberry sauce with rasberry pastry filling which came out really good. I plan on making this cake again for my mothers christmas party.

This cake was tasty and a good use of Thanksgiving leftovers. I used buttermilk instead of evaporated milk. I also strained the cranberries and put them in the actual batter and baked this cake in a bundt pan. It turned out really well. I glazed it with the frosting. The texture was dense and moist.

This cake was simple and delicious. I did substitute vanilla for the rum and strained the liquid from my cranberry sauce. Otherwise perfect.
