This cake is so simple but so delicious. If you have a party or potluck to attend, but not a lot of time, this is the dessert for you. When we make this cake, we use the ingredients listed below, but the recipe is really quite versatile. Wouldn’t it be delicious with chocolate sauce and mint chocolate pieces instead?
