Yummy dessert. Impressive enough for company. I had expected this to be complicated, but it was about as easy as any two layer cake. I made a half size cake in a 11 X 7 brownie pan because we don't eat many sweets these days. It was just right. I can't believe no one has tried this since 2002! Thanks for posting, Kathy.
