Diving into my Great-Grandmother’s treasure trove of old recipe cards, I stumbled upon a delightful dessert that seems to have vanished from today’s culinary radar – Butterscotch Cake. The adventure of exploring these vintage recipes is like uncovering lost gems, offering a taste of the past that is both nostalgic and novel. Paired with a Caramel Icing, a combination inspired by another find among the ancient cards, this cake promises a journey back in time to when these flavors were celebrated.
The Caramel Icing, a standout on its own, evokes memories of penuche or praline candy rather than modern-day gooey caramel. It sets into a unique coating reminiscent of brown sugar fudge, providing a distinct finish unlike any other frosting – it’s neither fluffy nor creamy but forms a delectable thin crust that complements the soft cake beneath.
