Number Of Ingredients 11

2 cups sugar, divided
1/2 cup baking cocoa
1-1/2 cups whole milk, divided
2 unbaked pastry shells (9 inches)
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 large egg, room temperature

VERA'S MENNONITE CAKE



Vera's Mennonite Cake image

We first enjoyed this delicious cake at a Mennonite Church potluck dinner, courtesy of a wonderful baker named Vera. She didn't have a title for her cake, so I named it myself. The texture of this cake is like a big pound cake, and the taste reminds me of tutti-frutti!
