as Chef #1296423 was saying this recipe has been around for a long time it goes back in my family almost a hundred years it was popularized in Italy during war times as supplies on eggs and milk were running short. note: it is a vegan cake recipe if left as is or combined with a vegan frosting. The Cake was so good that to this day many people claim it is the best cake recipe I have literally seen fights breakout over it and made peace with people by sharing this cake with them, it's that good. Funny thing is, everyone seems to make it a little bit different I am happy that cupcake princess did not give a frosting recipe with it. Once my sister almost got sued making it for a restaurant because someone believed she stole the recipe. this recipe has been handed down from my grandmother to my mother and her sibling and then on to my siblings. Just made a dark chocolate version today.

I'd been meaning to try this recipe and finally got to it today. I wanted to bake a cake but it's been so hot and humid, I didn't feel like dealing with all the fuss of my usual cake recipes. This one was so fast and easy to mix up and you really can't beat the minimal clean-up! The texture and flavor of this cake are wonderful too; it's very moist. I topped it with my usual chocolate frosting recipe and it's just perfect! This is definitely a keeper!

I don't really like to cook that much, but I love to bake. My favorite thing to do is bake yummy homemade cupcakes, brownies, cookies, and more. I enjoy eating bake goods as much as making them! I have a sweet Miniature Schnazer named Oliver that we adopted from the animal shelter. I like to collect old cookbooks, the oldest one I have is from 1913. My favorite magazines are Bon Appitite and Martha Stewart's Every Day Food. I just became a Certified Nursing Assistant. Around my house i'm known as the pissed off baker because when I bake you better stay out of the kitchen!!!
