If you are looking at this recipe and wondering if you should make...MAKE IT!! It is wonderful.The house smells delicious and the cake tastes even better than the smell of it.I made it pretty much as is except I omitted the salt and it took my convection oven 45 minutes to bake it.
I'll be keeping this in mind for when I have to bring dessert somewhere,it makes a nice big pan of goodness :) Thanks so much for sharing this recipe!
