    • Great, it makes a lot and we LOVED it. Isn’t it crazy how good the cake was with so few ingredients? I will make that every fall from now on….ok maybe more often! Lol

  1. I had essentially made this! On my own! From scratch! I got sort of inventive, but having this recipe to follow will be better, I’m sure.

    I know I still need to post about the meals I made from your recipes. Because there’s no deadline on that, it’s harder for me to get around to. :/ But I won’t forget entirely. Your posts always remind me. 🙂 In the meantime, I need to bookmark this page.

    • That’s awesome and the more you do it the easier it gets! Patience is my middle name I look forward to seeing them whenever you post them. As you see I am so behind on comments!

    • What? I never knew 13 year olds thanked parents for a meal of any kind unless it was a pizza that you ordered! 🤣 Seriously, I’m glad this is a hit with the family! Sounds like you have mastered this recipe.
