Peter Paul
Mounds Cake
Old Recipe Detective Blog Request
The request: I'm looking for a recipe
for a chocolate cake. That has icing that looks like the inside of a mounts
candy bar, with cherries added to the top. I'm thinking the name of the cake was
Peter Paul Mount cake. Could someone please help me with this? Thank you, Patty
