This recipe was given to me 30 years ago by a friend who lived in Georgia. She served it at Southern tea parties. It is so moist and it gets better several days later. I have also topped this with fresh strawberries and whipped creme when serving for special meals such as Easter or Christmas. Everyone always calls it "out of this world"!
