"I was surprised that this delicious cake was not here on Recipezaar. It is incredibly easy to make, and so moist and flavorful. It is my favorite cake and is most often the cake I make for my own birthday! I have also served it as a nice breakfast bread if you bake it in 2 loaf pans and serve slices with coffee."
