Round Cake
This is the recipe for the cake my mother made every Valentines Day. She would bake the cake in 2 pans. One round, and one square. She then would turn the square cake to form a diamond, cut the round cake in half and attached each half to either side of the point of the diamond with frosting. She would then decorate with candies and write with red frosting “Be My Valentine”,. That is how the name came about. Try this recipe for a wonderful Valentine Day dessert.
