I babysat for the Hood's while in highschool. While this is called a cake, it's more of a coffee cake, can be eaten anytime of day....it's great warm or cold, with or without ice cream or whipped cream. It's a great fall cake. I will often make this to take into a family that has suffered a loss. You can cut the recipe in 1/2 to make an 8x8 pan. ALWAYS LABEL FOODS MADE WITH NUTS.
