I baked this today (the only thing I did different was I used a Jiffy mix in place of the "from scratch" cornbread and just added the melted butter and brown sugar and I used 2 oz of honey whiskey rather than brandy, because it's what I had on hand. The first thing my husband and kids said was it was beautiful with the pretty fruit, especially the cherries. Then they tried it and they RAVED. It is DELICIOUS!

This recipe went in "The Vault." My whole family loved it, and of course it made me look like a rock star cook! I wouldn't change a thing. The presentation is beautiful and the taste is amazing. Thanks Sunny!

I am not a sweets eater. However I really enjoyed this cake. It was not dry. Rather it was really moist. I put to much syrup from the fruit cocktail in it. Next time I will not. It was not to grainy either. The leftovers were just as good. It really kept well. The whipped cream topping set it off. I ate myself sick. To me it was great. I am definitely making this again. I did not use the brandy. I was worried about it being over powering. But without it it was still wonderful.

This recipe looks great. I don't have a cast iron pan though. :( Has anyone tried it without using an iron cast pan? I wonder if I should even attempt it without having the right pan.

I tried this recipe out today, it was really tasty. I didn't have brandy so I substituted about a teaspoon of vanilla. I used extreme cherry fruit cocktail and then added 1/2 can of chunk pineapple and also cut up some strawberries. I didn't find this dry, like a lot of the other reviewers, but i used about half of the juice from the cocktail. This was a nice treat, I look forward to making it again and trying different combinations of fruit. What a lovely idea!

I have made this a couple of times. The first time I added the brandy and nuts, used canned fruit cocktail, small can of manderin oranges and dark brown sugar, because that is what I had. Second time I used canned pear halves and thawed out frozen strawberries, light brown sugar, left out brandy and nuts. Both times I served to different friends, all were so impressed with how good it was and how easy it is to make. However, instead of making the cornbread from scratch, I used 2 boxes corn bread mix and added 2 T brown sugar. The cornbread turns out really moist and flavorful.
