Ingredients:
- 1 egg
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1 cup sour cream
- 2 cups flour
- 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
- ½ teaspoon soda
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- Beat egg, adding sugar gradually, and then sour cream, beating until smooth.
- Add combined dry ingredients.
- Spread into greased 9 X 9 pan. Bake at 350 F, about 30 min. Cool and ice.
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1/3 cup butter
- 1/3 cup milk
- 1 cup icing sugar
- Boil brown sugar, butter and milk hard, stirring constantly, 3 min.

Just what I need for the weekend! I printed it and will be making it tommorow! Yummy! Thank you!
ReplyDeleteI like plain cakes..looks like a good recipe.
ReplyDeleteLooks like a wonderful fall cake...and I'm all for the finger lickin' icing!
ReplyDeleteHi Anneliese
ReplyDeleteThis looks great. I think I'd love that frosting...
Thanks for this recipe. I too love a simple cake with icing for a change. The extra caramel on the plate makes it just that little bit more special. Kathy

Thanks for sharing such wonderful recipes! I made this one today, but made it into cupcakes and also threw some toasted walnuts into the icing. They turned out really well! I'll be blogging it tomorrow morning. :-) (with a link back to your recipe since I wasn't sure if you would want your recipe copy & pasted onto another blog).
ReplyDeleteI made this cake for my extended family for Thanksgiving. Everyone liked it! It was a big hit and also quite easy to make!
ReplyDeleteI still have to make the bee sting cake.

Can you tell me if this cake would be good with apples in it? Was thinking of adding them and baking it in a bundt pan...then make the icing a bit thinner like a glaze. have not made this particular recipe before though...
ReplyDeleteAnnonymous,
ReplyDeleteapples sound good ... although I would probably prefer to use applesauce...
For a Bundt pan I would suggest to add 1/2 the recipe again... for example... 1 1/2 cups sugar, 1 1/2 cups sour cream, 3 cups flour ...I would do 2 eggs and 1 cup applesauce. Bake it 1 hour ...
Not sure about thining the glaze ... I think it would just run off. You may want to keep it as thick as possible and just concentrate on the top, letting some drip down the sides.
Those are just my thoughts and suggestions. Good luck. Let us know how it turns out.
Delicious and quite easy to prepare.My husband lovèd it as did I.
