Notes: OK, this is not exactly how Granny's recipe reads. I might have added some baking instructions for those unexperienced bakers in our family. So, to keep things real here is what her recipe says.
Bake at 325º for about 1 hour and check with a toothpick. BUT I did write this down so that might just might have been my version of the instructions. Granny is a GREAT cook; this is one of her signature cakes that is almost always at holiday meals.
