C. N.
"My gramma used to bake cakes and pies during the Depression and my grampa would sell them door-to-door and on the street corners to support them during that awful time. This is one of my favorites."

Made no changes. Cake was very dry. Embarrassed to serve to guests. We had to literally dip in coffee to even eat it. Would definitely NOT recommend this recipe. Waste of time and ingredients.
