This is a delicious cake. It's a little more time-intensive than I usually like (call me lazy), but it's well-worth the effort. Prep time varies with all the cooling.

This recipe sounds awesome. I can't wait to try it. Taking family on a camping trip (staying in a villa, my idea of camping) I am sure they will love it. I think it will soon become a family favorite.
