I have used swiss buttercream a lot lately and really love it. I was wondering if I could add about 2 ounces of cream cheese to the recipe without ruining it?

Joy, the cake looks truly delicious! And I can relate so much to what you wrote about remembering places you’ve been to by the food you ate there - till this day food memories are one of my strongest and most lasting memories.

I love old fashioned cake recipes like this. Cakespy is right, they always hit the spot. Your Aunt was a remarkable woman continuing to bake under those circumstances. Thats truly incredible.
