Thank you for sharing. I have been looking for a true PR cake for years just like when I was a child. Will try it this weekend.
Is it 45 minutes at 350*?
Did anyone make this cake finally? I'm hoping to make it this week.
Thank you so much! I have been looking for one for a very long time. :)
My sister in law just made this this weekend. Very moist, delicious taste.
