Recipe Introduction
I remember this was served in the school cafeteria.
My great grandmother used to make it.
List of Ingredients
Cake
1 cup old-fashioned oats
½ cup (1 stick) butter or margarine, softened
1 cup packed light brown sugar
1 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 eggs
1½ cups all-purpose flour
½ to1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
Icing
3 tablespoons butter or margarine, softened
2/3 cup packed brown sugar
3 tablespoons milk
1 egg, beaten
1 cup sweetened flaked coconut
½ cup pecans
Recipe
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 13 x 9-inch glass baking dish.
For the cake, combine 1½ cups hot water and the oats in a small bowl; set aside to cool. Combine the butter, sugars, eggs, and vanilla; beat with a mixer at medium speed.
Sift the flour, spices, baking soda, and salt over the sugar mixture. Add the cooled oat mixture; beat well.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake 35 minutes, or until a wooden pick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Preheat the broiler.
To prepare the icing, combine all of the ingredients in a medium bowl; stir until well blended. Spread on the hot cake and broil until golden brown. Cool completely on a wire rack.
