I've posted this recipe each fall since I first started blogging, and it's one of those recipes that no one should miss! I've had three friends ask me for it this week, so I figured you might just enjoy it too this weekend. 🙂
This is by far my favorite fall treat, and it's all I can do to wait until October to share it with you. I could make this cake all year long and never grow tired of it, but it just sounds so good in the fall and makes our home smell delicious!
It's also so easy that anyone can make it . . . in fact when I first found the recipe nine years ago I was teaching preschool “cooking and science” and my preschool classes made the cake – our entire church smelled heavenly! I noticed that Southern Living re-printed this recipe in their October 2010 issue (along with a few variations), but I'm sticking with the original. 🙂
