I made this for our Christmas celebration. This is just like my grandmother's recipe, except she added vanilla-butternut flavoring. I tasted the batter and decided I had to add that too! I also followed the directions for the cream cheese frosting from her original recipe. Beautiful cake that gets moister the next day. Made for Newest tag!1Reply
