Hey Guys!
I went to Von's Supermarket in Anaheim, CA today and they had a sale on Cake Mixes...just in time to make this recipe and some others like Biscotti, Cookies etc... The deal is: BUY 2 GET 3 FREE AND IT AMOUNTS TO ABOUT 40 CENTS A BOX! So, if you're in CA-I don't know if the sale is Nationwide or not so ask your local Vons about it.
I'm pretty pleased. I have enough that I can make all sorts of things. The icings are also BUY 2 GET 3 FREE as well. I don't use them much but they're nice to have on hand to put in a plastic bag, cut off the end and "pipe on" rolls, cookies, biscotti or whatever you like.

This place is beginning to feel like a massive kitchen with a bunch of talented chefs inside. Pretty cool isn't it?

I love this recipe! So very easy and so many ways you can alter the recipe with the ease of the many flavors of cake mixes today!
I'm going to make it with Lemon Cake Mix. I love Lemon anything. It reminds me of the cakes my grandmother made for me when I was going to Catholic School years ago. (She made my lunch every day and what a great hour that was!)

Hats of to you on this one.

I had a Cake Mix Bread recipe that I would have to dig out of my library I used to make years ago. I've never seen one quite like this though.

Thanks.

If you lived closer I'd have you over for the finished product!
