- Whenever it's my birthday, I hope this is the
cake. We turned our neighbors into fans at one
of their birthday parties, too.
This recipe is loosely based on the Fudge Ribbon Cake made by Mrs. Richard D. Butler of Chesterland, Ohio. Mrs. Butler was the $1,500 Senior Third Prize Winner of Pillsbury's 16th Grand National Bake-Off in 1965. Ann Pillsbury adapted the original recipe so this is a re-adaptation.
