                      OP cake recipe                               1/29/98

At last years x-mas work party there was the most amazing cake- and I managed
to get the recipe, after promising I would never make it for a work party.  I
never promised I wouldn't share it tho'...
so to contribute to the list in a fashion other than my usual useless
comments...
the recipe also appears to multiply well x4 makes a lovely big cake- don't
multiply the whipped cream tho- unless you are into that ;)
