When it comes to favorite classic cake recipes, Italian Cream Cake most definitely sits high on our list. With a little digging we learned that the origins of this treat appear more southern than Italian. In hindsight, that makes perfect sense with main ingredients like butter, pecans, and coconut. It’s not totally clear where the Italian label came from, but we have to admit it gives the name an air of sophistication. Regardless of where the recipe came from, we sure are glad that it made its way into our recipe box because it is de-licious.
