From the magical ziplock bag of Gramma Stevens', here comes another of her wonderful treats. I remember the smell of this cake baking up north in the cottage. Us kids would have ice cream and the adults would have this cake. Us kids, if we timed it right, would get a bite from mom or dad, if we were lucky. It's not very big on size, but big on taste. Enjoy ~
