We discovered this recipe a few years back when looking for a dessert to make for Rosh Hashanah. This cake doesn’t last any longer than a day in our house, it is that good!
It involves a bit of steps to make, but trust me it is well worth the effort!
The cake itself is not too sweet, but the caramel glaze for the top is what makes this cake! If we ever have some left over, it tastes even better the next day!! If it lasts that long!
Let us know how yours turns out! Leave a comment below!
