CHEF'S NOTES

•Enjoy! Our family’s favorite cake for summer birthdays! 

Emily and her husband have lived in BH for the last 25 years, where they raised their four children. Nightly family dinners around the kitchen table hold some of Emily’s favorite memories. She has always loved to cook, inspired by her mother and grandmother, both fabulous cooks, who cooked healthy meals with fresh vegetables from the garden. They tended to stray from traditional dishes and that’s how Emily grew up eating. Though this recipe is not necessarily healthy, it is not your traditional cake recipe made with butter and a lot of sugar, is delicious with fresh berries and is a family favorite, especially for family spring and summer birthdays!
