INGREDIENTS
Isn't that a sweet name for a cake?
Makes me think of taking one to welcome a new neighbororto a family with a brand new baby.
This easy and delicious cake is from Dorie Greenspan's book
Baking From My Home to Yours
his cake has just a handful of ingredients and goes together quickly.
It is so moist and bakes in an old-fashioned skillet, heat proof pan or a buttered cake or pie pan.
Lots of flavor comes from vanilla and almond extract as well as lemon zest blended into the sugar with your fingers.
Really delightful!
