We also found another copy of her original cookbook for her, since hers was also falling apart! Thanks for sharing this recipe- it brought back good memories!

I am sure it would be ok for two layer if you put it on very thin but we love icing so I suggest you double it up for a three layer.Neldahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18389308563539257349noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3212581401252445388.post-84303059911601294592012-08-26T20:05:14.641-05:002012-08-26T20:05:14.641-05:00This cake is my absolute favorite!

The frosting is addictive....I always make extra, and eat it right out of the container on everything I can think of for the next couple of weeks. Try soaking the raisins in rum for a bit....it plumps them up and makes the cake a little more moist without changing the flavor. I use 3 nine inch baking pans, greased and lightly floured....the cake will slide right out beautifully! Enjoy!

Ally began baking years ago by using my first cookbook that started my love of baking, as well, "The Cookie Book" by Eva Moore, Illustrations by Talivaldis Stubis, a little paperback published by Scholastic Book Services, copyright 1973. My favorite recipe is on page 54, Chocolate Chip Brownies. All this to say: it was simply divine back then, but now I can't find the envelopes of unsweetened chocolate sold by Nestle's Choco-Bake or Hershey's Ready-mix and it has made all the difference in taste and texture...what should I do? What is the equivalent today? Neither my mom nor I can figure out how to make those divinely moist and chewy brownies that we all just salivated for back in the 70's! Any suggestions?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3212581401252445388.post-11541765466537421902011-05-08T12:08:55.930-05:002011-05-08T12:08:55.930-05:00I wish I had a piece of your cake.
