wow ........so mad at myself right now. I halfed the recipe and used the entire amount of bread crumbs plus a little more. Had I not done that it would have been great....but this recipe is good. Personally, if I would have been thinking, I would have added some pineapples to it, but I will make it again. It is good and I know my family will love it.........if you are thinking about making this....please do. I used vanilla cake.
