Submitted by Cassie Hunsicker

"A recipe passed down from generation to generation in my boyfriend's family. This recipe was given to me by his mother. A wonderful treat for everyone of all ages! For best results, you should make the icing homeade, but it's just as delicious with Pillsbury's icing."
