This cake brought back some old memories as I made this simple cold cake for my mother when I was twelve years old. It is fireless cooking and young kids can make it.
My daughter chanced upon this recipe in old diaries that I have where I scribble recipes. She decided to make the same cake for me on Mother’s Day ..I guess what they say is true ‘the legacy continues…

If you have leftover icing,you can use it to decorate some cupcakes. It is like butter cream icing. It may not hold too long outside the fridge so keep putting it back . This is a very good way to bond with your kids and do this together as a mother day activity. You can experiment with flavors by skipping chocolate, adding jam or different essences or colors.
