make it
In a bowl mix all ingredients with a spoon. Pour into a greased and floured 9x13 pan.
Bake at 350 degree for 40-45 mins. Cool in pan and frost. (Ovens vary, check cake after 35 mins. Should be browned a bit and spring back when touched) Cool cake.
For Frosting:
Beat well with mixer. Spread onto cooled cake. Keep refrigerated.
Notes
Feel free to decorate. I sometimes use a cake comb (or fork) and stripe it, or make extra frosting and do borders, etc. Sprinkle with walnuts on top if you wish.
My family loves this recipe. A dear friend baked it for us when we lost our father. When I told her how much everyone liked it, I asked would you share your recipe with us. She laughed sheepishly and said, "I am embarrassed. I baked it for a funeral but it is called "Hawaiian Wedding Cake". No matter what the occasion, everyone will love this quick easy recipe! I hope you enjoy it.
