Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
This is a special cake for a friend Brent met at CIA who was killed in an auto accident one year prior to Brent's passing. His mother sent me the recipe in hopes others would enjoy it as much as Jacob. Jacob and Brent were great friends and this should be made in honor of Jacob.
