"This is a simple recipe for a cake that you can sub out the extracts to make different cakes. Or add some cocoa powder to some of the batter to make a marbled cake, or add some cocoa powder to all the batter to make it chocolate. This recipe came from my mothers recipe box, and she said its an old recipe, so she wasn't sure where it came from. "
