This simple, old-fashioned cake tastes so good it will surprise you! As I remember my mom's delicious meals, this dessert was always the perfect ending. Mom always used "a dash of this and dab of that" to come up with what we thought was "the best"! — Rosemary Pryor, Pasadena, Maryland

My 11 yr old daughter makes this and without fail, it disappears fast!

Fabulous cake! I made this as the base for strawberry shortcake with fresh strawberries and Cool Whip - it was a big hit :) Thanks for the recipe! God bless.

By the way, my second attempt was not as successful as the first (cake did not rise as high) and I have found that beating the eggs well is *very* important--you may need to beat more than five minutes!

Made this early one Sunday morning, when my daughter and granddaughter came up stairs for breakfast my daughter told her daughter that it was breakfast cake and she ate it. The following Sunday she asked if we could have breakfast cake again, yes we did!

My Mther called this "a hot milk sponge cake". We had it with strawberries every summer for years. It's fantastic!

This is my favorite cake since 1993. My family loves it. I am making it today for my 70th birthday tomorrow. Love it.

I thought this cake was good but not really anything to rave about. If I ever make it again, I will probably make a frosting for it, poke holes into it for pudding, or cut it up to be used in some other sort of dessert.

Made this cake for the first time and it was to die for. Dusted some powdered sugar on the top. Next time, might add some lemon extract and zest to the batter.
