Dieter's Delight

One day I thought about a cake my mother used to make during the Great Depression. It was
called "Eggless, Milkless, Butterless Cake".

I wondered how she managed to make a cake without those ingredients. So I Googled. And, boy,
did I find a wonderful recipe, probably the genuine thing from so long ago.

It uses only two tablespoons of shortening, one cup of sugar and lots of various spices. Some
people said it taste like gingerbread. I love gingerbread!

I haven't tried the recipe yet, but I did read many of the reviews and people really raved about this cake.

I plan to top it off with Redi -Whip.

Janey, if you are reading this, I hope you will try it and tell me if you liked it.
