OLD-FASHIONED BROWN SUGAR CAKE
Not sure where this cake recipe came from, my mom passed it to me many years ago. We use it as a great holiday favorite but I usually sneak it in a couple times a year. It's a great treat to bring to a party or work. The brown sugar and almond extract give it a distinctive taste.

SWEET CORNMEAL CAKE BRAZILIAN-STYLE
Very easy and fast to make from scratch and healthy, too. In Brazil, this cake is a favorite along a cup of coffee for breakfast. It is very similar in texture to a cornmeal bread, but only this is a sweet cake instead. Stir your favorite seeds or walnuts into the blended batter before pouring into the pan, if desired.

Tips:
- For a richer flavor, use dark brown sugar instead of light brown sugar.
- If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of regular milk and letting it sit for 5 minutes.
- To make sure the cake is cooked through, insert a toothpick into the center of the cake. If it comes out clean, the cake is done.
- Let the cake cool completely before frosting it.
- For a smooth and creamy frosting, make sure the cream cheese and butter are softened to room temperature before beating them together.
- If you don't have a piping bag, you can use a zip-top bag with the corner snipped off to pipe the frosting onto the cake.
