I have made this cake and it is delicious. After taking the cake out of the oven, I pour 1 cup of miniature marshmallows on the hot cake before pouring on the warm frosting. The marshmallows melt from the hot cake and warm frosting and add another dimension of taste to the cake.
Thanks Mell for the yummy tip – Trisha
