Nana's No Name Cake image

I remember Nana making this when I was a kid, just found the recipe in my recipe shoe box but there is no name on it : ( So it becomes the No Name Cake. The ingredients may seem a bit odd, but the cake is wonderful! Hope you all give it a try. I am planning on making it when I am no longer sick!!
