Grandma Lil's Sour Cream Cake image

This recipe; from what I'm told was handed down to my Grandmom from her Grandmom. Its a no fail (as far as taste goes) desert cake. It is a staple in our Christmas desert table and is perfect with a cup of coffee. Its easy to make and I've never meet a person who didn't like it.
