This recipe has instantly become a favorite. I followed this recipe to bake my first cake in my outdoor wood burning oven! After baking bread, I let the oven cool just a bit. The cake baked beautifully! Great, easy recipe to make a rich chocolate/mocha cake. Thanks!

Oma's Rhubarb Cake

Reviewed: Feb. 5, 2012

Very simple and very good! This recipe will definitely help use up the few bags of frozen rhubarb that must go to make room for the spring crop. If the cake is this good with frozen rhubarb, I imagine it will be wonderful with fresh picked. I also used plain yogurt (whole milk) in combination with a few tablespoonfuls of sour cream. Added ~1/8 teaspoon of freshly grated nutmeg to the batter. Moist and delicious! Thank you, Oma!

Great Nana's Secret Ingredient Date Nut Bread

Reviewed: Dec. 26, 2010

An excellent quick bread with a unique secret ingredient! I used 3/4 cup sugar as my dates were moist and sweet (medjools). I would cut the coffee with water when I bake this again. I brew VERY strong coffee with dark roast beans. The coffee flavor was quite pronounced. A more dilute coffee flavor might better enhance the date/nut flavor of the bread. Thank you to Lauren and her Great Nana!
