I came across this recipe at Broken or Not while cruising BlogExplosion. It sounded so good I felt I must post it here at This Mama Cooks!
What intrigued me was while it’s called a cake, it has no eggs. Just the sort of recipe I’m looking for the egg-sensitive Boo Girl, thanks Kris. (She’s also starting to post recipes on her blog every Sunday, so cruise on by her site and tell her This Mama Cooks! sent you.)

**The recipe calls for optional whipped topping, not vanilla ice cream, but since I always serve it with vanilla ice cream, I changed it.
