What is your absolutely favorite? That one that always causes that wow effect? Can you share?
I use Pillsbury box mixes. But my response will cause your post to bump to the top again.
I suspect any recipe you find in the recipe section of cc are the favorites of the users here.
This is a Wilton Recipe and everytime I use it people go wild. It is wonderful and moist and loads of taste.
Carrot Cake with White Chocolate Icing
Ingredients:
4 eggs
1 cup vegetable oil
1 teaspoon Wilton Pure Vanilla Extract
2 cups all-purpose flour

4 cups (approx. 1 lb.) grated carrots
2/3 cup chopped nuts
1/2 cup raisins
1/2 cup crushed pineapple, drained
Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly spray 2 nine in. round pans with vegetable spray, or use Wilton Cake Release (Click here for complete instructions on preparing baking pans.) In large mixing bowl, beat eggs until foamy; add oil and vanilla and beat well. Mix flour, sugar, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, allspice and salt together; add to egg mixture and mix well. Fold in carrots, nuts, raisins and pineapple. Pour into prepared pans and bake 30-35 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool 10 minutes in pans on cooling grid and invert on grid to cool.

2 (8 oz.) packages cream cheese, softened
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
2 Tablespoons lemon juice
Melt Candy Melts according to directions. Allow coating to cool slightly, stirring occasionally (don't let it harden). In a mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese (preferably with a flat beater) until smooth and creamy. Gradually beat in the cooled coating until blended and smooth. Beat in the butter and lemon juice. Smooth a small amount of icing on bottom cake layer; top side up. Top with second layer bottom side up. Frost cake with remaining icing. Refrigerate until ready to serve; bring to room temperature 30 minutes before serving.

I get rave reviews for two recipes. One is the bride's cake recipe from the cake mix doctor. It is a very moist cake. The second is the bride's recipe with sliced strawberries and whipped cream as the filling. Yummy!
