Hot Milk Cake
My mom has been making this cake since the 60s. It is one of those cakes that is not appealing to look at but ends up being loved by all once they take a bite. I have given this recipe to everyone that has tasted it and they have passed it on to others.
This is a recipe easy to whip up if you need something to bring at a potluck.
