This cake is easy and delicious! It is perfect for when you have guests or just to have with a cup of tea. I grew up in a house that always had a fresh cake, brownies, or cookies in case we had company – I find myself doing the same! However, this cake is very popular and rarely lasts long once it is discovered by the kids and their friends!
