Scripture Cake

Baking a cake while reading the Bible! I guess this is one of those times when you can have your cake and eat it too-LOL!

This is a wonderful recipe to do with your children! I cannot take credit for it. A friend of mine had her mother’s cookbook that was put together by the women of her church. But this recipe dates back to 1906.
