AUNT PEGGY'S ITALIAN CREAM CAKE
My Aunt Peggy died in 2009. I thankfully got two of her recipe boxes after she passed. They contained both some of her recipes and my grandmother's recipes. I found this recipe in one of the boxes. My mom talks about how much she enjoyed Aunt Peggy's Italian Cream Cake. I surprised her and made this cake for her birthday. It is delicious! Definitely a recipe I will treasure!
