Check out what my friends at Food.com had to say about this amazing Do Nothing Cake:
Made this today and both my husband and I say “it’s a keeper”. This was so easy to make. I love the heavy dense texture to this cake. I will for sure be making it again. Yum!
Yum. We liked this a lot. What a nice change from the usual cake with powdered sugar frosting. Very dense cake and next time I may bake just a bit shorter time. I ran out of sugar so used 1/4 white sugar and 3/4 brown sugar for frosting. Still turned out lovely – just sweet enough and really good with chopped pecans. Will make again.
