Family recipe, though it may be from a newspaper.
The frosting and cake meld together deliciously. I associate this cake with summer picnics and movies on the lawn. It is a very quick cake; if using a jelly roll pan, it takes about 35 minutes from start to finish.

My mom’s recipe. I don’t know where she got it. I have kept the ingredients and measurements as written. This cake is another family favorite – so moist. Seems to get more delicious the longer it is refrigerated.
To make it a tad more healthy, substitute applesauce for some of the oil, and sprinkle powdered sugar on top instead of the cream cheese frosting.

Also known as “Morning Kuchen.” Based on a recipe called “Kirsten’s Kaka” from an Oklahoma regional cookbook (I think.) Not being Swedish, we changed the name.
This cake is good plain, or with fruit on top. A former roommate told me that it was quite similar to the cakes sold by the Amish in Pennsylvania.
