snack cake

SO.... back to the recipes kids.  After several comments about how to make this delicious cake- here ya go mags- snack cake!  I made it for Mags, Becks, and Nicole and Maggie asked about it tonight after some gourmet tuna noodle casserole and during the bach.  Confession- there ya go.  I haven't made it in awhile, and it was a surprising success.  As in, the girls ate the whole cake that night.  And they loved it.  Point and case by the photo below.  I'll let that be the encouragement to you as to why you should make this not a cake, not a cookie snack cake!
