    This is a recipe from my mum. She made me a cookbook of favourite recipes when I left home. Her note is, 'this is handy when you don't have an egg in the house and you need something other than jelly for dessert'.

    I misplaced my recipe for this dessert, so I tried this one. It's very good, a couple of different steps than my mom's (adding the milk & butter), but it still tastes the same. *I made this a 2nd time, only changing a couple things, and it came out even better, I think! I added 1 tsp vanilla, 2 Tbl coffee granules to 2 Cups water, baked at 325' for 40 mins.  -  14 Jun 2007  (Review from Allrecipes USA and Canada)

    This was awesome! I did change one thing: Instead of pouring hot water on top, I poured freshly brewed coffee. This made the cake have such a fantasic flavor. I can't wait to have it again.  -  21 Jul 2006  (Review from Allrecipes USA and Canada)
