I noticed this recipe well worth praise has not had any comments posted for several years... I found it truly excellent! The only thing I will change is double the cake recipe as it rendered too little. Bravo, this oldie is easy and delicious!! I used half pecans and half almonds for the topping and Splenda in place of sugar, fine!

A wonderful cake, and so easy to make! I doubled the recipe to make in a 9x13 pan, using 1 tsp. vanilla and 1 tsp. almond extracts, as I was using almonds in the topping. Kept 1/3 for myself and took the rest to work....and it literally vanished in front of my eyes. It may be an old recipe (and I'm an old cook), but it was new to me....soon to be a regular. Thanks so much for posting it!

My mom wanted this a few years back, and I found a recipe on the box at that time. Then when I wanted to make it for her again, I couldn't find it again. Now I make it for several family members that love it because they all love it and mom's aunt used to make it, so it's good comfort food. Awesome, thanks for posting!

I'm a "newbee" to this site, but not to cooking. I love great food and to share recipes and this site is great! I don't know where the information of a "fry cook" came from, but I would consider myself anything else but that :)
A NYC girl originally, lived in London and Canada where I am now. Met lots of interesting people along life's way who taught me a great deal and enriched my life with their knowledge of cooking.
With my children now adults, the family has doubled in size and my commitment to making memories to pass down to another generation inspires me to cooking.
I find cooking a creative expression of one's personality and never tire of new challenges in the kitchen.
