By the way, I like the way you frequently use the same size tin for your cakes (9x13). This makes it so easy and means I'm not constantly wishing I had a huge range of cake tins!
I am going to make this by the end of the week!! Thanks so much :)
ReplyDeleteI make this same recipe! I serve it with "Warm Sauce": 1 c. brown sugar, 1 c. white sugar, 1 c. light cream, 2 tsp. flour, 1/2 c. butter. Cook together till smooth and creamy. Add 2 tsp. vanilla. It's so yummy on this cake!!
