GRANNY CAKE

Sometimes you can tell by the name of a recipe that it's going to be good. When my son-in-law told me about a "GRANNY CAKE" I knew that I had to make it. I think anything our grandmothers made was good. This cake is simple. Ingredients are those you probably have and it is so delicious and moist. The picture above is after it was cut, but the one below is the cake before it was cut. I hope you will try it.
