Now this cake is a beauty. Because not only does it smell incredible and perhaps will have any stray children or pets coming out of their respective hiding places for a slice, but it also tastes divine. This is one of the harder cakes I've made. The recipe originally came to me from the gorgeous Chanel from CatsLoveCooking .
