Ingredients

• At our Thanksgiving dinner this year, my niece made the recipe I’m sharing today. She found it in a back issue of Bon Appetit, circa 2000. This cake is good on so many levels. First, it isn’t hard or complicated to make. Second, it smells absolutely heavenly while it’s baking. Third, it looks beautiful on the table. Fourth, it tastes incredible on the day it is cooked, and even better on the second day, and there won’t be any left after that. Guaranteed. Make this for someone you love sometime during this holiday season. You won’t be sorry—and no, I won’t give you my niece’s number so she can come cook for you—she’s mine, all mine.
