This is Mom's recipe that she makes. It is the best one out there. Last year I didn't have this recipe so I just tried one out of a book that I have. Never again. It was no where as yummy as Mom's recipe. Many of the recipes call for nutmeg or cinnamon. I know you can leave them out but still the cake just isn't as good. Also nothing top the icing that seeps into the warm cake and keeps it moist.
