This cake perfectly caps off this dinner without anyone guessing it's lighter than most desserts. Broiling the topping of oats, coconut and nuts creates a crispy texture that nicely complements the tender cake.-Michelle Bishop, Peru, Indiana

Not a big fan of this recipe. The cake was a bit dry and the crunchy topping was too hard. Maybe I did something wrong, but I won't be making this again.

Amazing cake! The crunchy topping was a unique and delicious addition. I used dark chocolate chips and it was the perfect balance of sweetness and bitterness.
