Norwegian Gold Cake image

I grew up in a very Norwegian family. Both of my grandmothers made a version of this cake. I aquired this recipe when my grandma moved to a nursing home, and I was finally able to search through her secret recipes. We used to have it with coffee during our midmorning coffee break.
