I made it a couple of times when I was a kid. I want to say that the recipe
was on some box of something or other that we had in the kitchen. But
nobody really liked the stuff. I thought it was okay but I've never been
thrilled with cake like stuff, which this was. After the second time of
throwing it out, I didn't make it again until a few years ago when I found a
gluten free recipe for it. Again, didn't go over so well.

I wonder if maybe it isn't a commonly liked food? I don't think I've ever
seen it in a bakery.
