Cooking web notes

If you love making cakes that are simple to prepare but yet taste awesome, you will love this recipe. It uses ingredients you mostly likely have on hand. My family really enjoys this cake recipe because its different and tastes awesome. If you have a large enough rectangular cake pan, you can indeed make it in one pan instead of the 2 rounds called for in the recipe. I like to top mine with either vanilla or cream cheese frosting.
