    Heaven and Hell Cake

    List of Ingredients

    Whence the name doth appear:

    This cake is 'heaven' in your mouth and 'hell' to get a piece of! It's a white cake with caramel frosting, honey and cashews.

    2-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
    2 teaspoons baking soda
    1-3/4 cups white sugar
    1-1/4 cups butter, softened
    3 egg whites
    1 cup plain yogurt
    2-1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract

    1 (16 ounce) container
    caramel flavored frosting
    1/3 cup honey
    1/3 cup cashews





    Recipe

    1 Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease
    and flour two 8 inch round pans. Stir together the flour
    baking soda and salt, set aside.
    2 In a medium bowl, cream together the butter and sugar
    until smooth. Stir in the egg whites and beat until light
    and fluffy. Add the flour mixture alternately with the
    milk (or yogurt) and vanilla, mixing after each addition.
    Pour batter into the prepared pans in equal amounts.
    3 Bake cakes for 25 to 30 minutes in the preheated oven,
    until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Remove from pans
    to cool on wire racks.
    4 Place first layer onto a plate, cover with some of the
    caramel frosting, drizzle honey over the cake in a criss-cross
    pattern. Sprinkle with cashews, cover with the next layer and
    repeat with remaining ingredients. This cake is best when
    refrigerated for a day, because the honey is absorbed by the cake.

    Prep Time: approx. 20 Minutes
    . Cook Time: approx. 30 Minutes.
    Original recipe makes 2 - 8 inch round pans
    ( 12 servings).
