Mom’s Eggless Cake
My Mom is a good cook but the recipe I want to share is my favorite cake of hers. She would make this cake for my birthday every year and I loved it. She is also known for her pecan pie which she always made a whole pie for me to take home at Christmas.
This cake is so moist and sweet. Mom says it is made with love and I believe her. Mom is a loving, funny, strong woman and all her baking is done with love. Unfortunately I don't have a picture of the cake but here is her recipe
