Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
This is the cake that Aviva and Rebecca made for Marilyn's 50th birthday as it is one of her favorite cakes - after several calls to Aunt Wendi and Grandma Doris (this is from her recipes) the cake was determined no good because they took it out before it was completely cooked and the next day was too late to continue to cook it.
