This recipe is very versatile and I have used it over and over for different homemade cakes by altering the wet and dry ingredients a little. Thanks for this one!

I made a smaller version and tried lemon icing and strawberry pie filling as a topping. Both were good. I used sour cream but I think yogurt would also work.

My grandmother uses to make this candy for us and it was very decadent. I was happy to find this recipe. Mine turned out a bit harder than hers, but tased the same. I need to use a candy thermometer next time and stop the heat just at soft ball and increase the flavor by one half.
