(2 ratings)
This cake recipe was given to me many years ago by a woman I worked with ~ She was always watching her calorie intake , soo if you have a second piece you won't feel so bad. Served this to a friend that dropped in and she loved it sooo much she makes it once a month and put it in her Senior Center cook-book with my name as the one that submitted it.
