Thin layers of cake sweetened with honey and drenched in a sour cream frosting, this traditional Russian cake is labor-intensive and delicious. It is best made a day before you serve it.

Magically Easy Pumpkin Spice Cake and a Book Review #SundayFunday #LitHappens
This Magically Easy Pumpkin Spice Cake takes only 2 ingredients. Yes, you heard me right....2 ingredients.
All Hallows Eve is nearly upon us. In Horror, I realized I still had not used my Jack O' Lantern pan. I have a kitchen and garage full of specialty pans, tools, and gadgets. I try to use them at least once a year so I am not overcome with guilt and horror LOL.

Delicious, warmly spiced pumpkin cake with a boiled coconut icing. I baked mine up in this Jack O'Lantern pan for Halloween but an 8" square pan would work as well, giving you just enough cake to enjoy for dessert one day and breakfast the following morning.
