You can always count on a good friend to give you a good recipe.
My friend, Karen, comes from a long line of good cooks. Her grandmother was a great cook and her mom is "The Pie Lady". She can whip up a Caramel Pie or a Coconut Cream Pie in the blink of an eye. She always has the ingredients on hand.
Karen has turned out like her mom in that respect. She's a great cook. This is a recipe that she shared with me recently. It's so easy, yet so delicious!
I've made this cake twice this week. I polished off most of the first one myself, but took the second one to my inlaws' family get together. I had to get that evil thing out of the house! My hips have gotten wider just this week. I'm trying to low carb, I really am. I try to save my treat for that one-hour span, like the Carb Addict plan suggests, but it sure is hard with this treat around!
Karen prefers the cake 'nekkid', but I made an Orange Glaze to pour over the warm cake. Most of it pooled up in the middle, but I just spooned that right out of the middle and onto my slice. Mmm-mmm, good.
