The Farmers’s Daughter’s Cake

It’s not too often I bake the Cake Slice bonus cake. I had cream I had to use up before it went bad, and decided it was time to test this recipe. 




For our bonus bake this month, we were given the option to bake from Maida Heatters Cakes!
I enjoyed baking from this book, and still have a few recipes bookmarked, including this one!



The  batter was super easy to put together. The recipe has no butter or oil, it’s made with heavy cream. The batter was quite tasty, and anticipated a great result.


I would love to say the cake was fantastic, but just not the case. The cake turned out dry. Pretty disappointed. Not so bad if you chase it down with ice cold milk. 


The icing was way too sweet for my liking. Glad I only made half the icing recipe. Regardless of not being the best yellow cake I’ve baked up, it disappeared quickly the next day. No one really said anything and seemed happy to have cake to snack on through out the day.
