I found this recipe in the newspaper about 50 years ago and have been making it all these years and it is still a favorite that friends, family and co workers asked for. Don’t let the steps fool you, it isn’t as hard as it sounds but I needed to explain it that way for the first time you make it. I am sure this will be a family favorite, not only does it taste great right out of the oven but the next day with a cup of coffee it is just as good.
