I love the simplicity of these cakes. They're made with just a few ingredients, but they're so flavorful. I love to eat them plain, but they're also great with butter, jam, or honey.

I've been making these cakes for years, and they're always a favorite. They're so versatile, too. You can add different spices or fruits to change up the flavor. I love to add cinnamon and nutmeg, or sometimes I'll add blueberries or raspberries.

My grandmother used to make these cakes for us when we were kids. They're so simple, but so delicious. I love the crispy edges and the soft, fluffy centers. Thanks for sharing this recipe! I'm going to make them for my own kids now.
