Nameless Cake Recipe
This is a cake that was a favorite of grandma's to make for special occasions. I haven't seen another recipe similar to this one. A perfect cake for an ending to a special meal. Let me know what you think after you try it. Thanks!

Great cake love the.ingredients thanks


Sounds great.


What size pans??


Hi,
I am not sure. The pans I use are my round layer cake pans. But you can probably use a 9 x 13 and let it bake a little longer.
