bonnie's cuckoo cake
A Cuckoo Cake. This is an oldie and fun cake. It has a fun name. Quite appropriate for our times, too. Why is it called a Cuckoo Cake? You will find out when you read the Directions. But don't let that put you off. It is a yummy snack cake with pecans and melted chocolate on top. Kids and adults alike will approve. I am on my way to the kitchen to have a big slice of cake and a glass of cold milk! Enjoy!
