TWD: Swedish Visiting Cake

I just started muttering "My Swedish Visiting Cake brings all the girls to the yard..." I may be beyond help. Anyway, this cake was the Tuesdays with Dorie pick for today, and I found it absolutely delicious! I made it during that cold weekend of baking, which was perfect. The cast iron really does allow for a crisp crust, and though I left it in the oven on the long side to let the middle get golden, the bottom was still just a medium brown. The cake had a lovely dense, moist crumb, and like the Coconut Tea Cake it was really good for breakfast.

Yipeee for Swedish cake..I loved it. The only thing I have had Swedish is the candy Swedish fish! Your cake looks so good!

Looks fantastic. This was good wasn't it?

The fact that it's made in a skillet automatically qualifies it as breakfast food, right? (In the case of the coconut cake, if you can put it in the toaster it's breakfast.) Glad you liked it, and thanks for baking along with me this week.

It was good for breakfast...and just about any other time I passed through the kitchen. Looks great!
