"The tradition of Italian cooking is that of the matriarch. This is the cooking of grandma. She didn't waste time thinking too much about the celery. She got the best celery she could and then she dealt with it."--Mario Batali

This is grandma's specialty that has been handed down to us. I use any yellow cake mix and loved walnuts so I cover the whole pan with more. Also I use the whole container of the cool whip in the frosting.
