My Mom made 2 of these for me to bring to the North East RU @ Kassia's home on June 28, 2008.
She used pecans in one & walnuts in the other.
It's an easy cake to make, no mixer involved.
Just mix everything in one bowl.
Everyone seems to enjoy it.
I don't eat it 'cuz I don't like nuts or coconut. LOL!
