This is the most addictive cake I have ever eaten. My husband and I can polish off the entire cake in one day (or two, if we can hide it from the kids). It is good with coffee, chai, tea, milk, you name it. Great for breakfast, lunch, dinner, snack, and dessert. Or all of the above. When I saw the name of this cake on Pinterest I was curious to read why this was “Crack” cake. I’ve seen Crack Brownies out there and even made our version of them . But cake? I was curious. And was I glad I looked! Just reading the ingredients made me want to make it. It has all kinds of deliciousness packed into it.   I think I cooked it a little too long.
