As a child, I loved this cake when my mother made it. It was my favorite. But then she lost the recipe and I was heartbroken. Imagine my surprise and happiness when 40 years later I saw it on Pinterest, thanks to you. The first time I made it, I wasn’t sure it was the same until I tasted it. It was like being transported back to my childhood. It is so delicious and so easy. Thanks so much for posting this recipe!
