On a trip to Stevensville, MI, we stopped in for donuts at Dale's. They have the usual suspects here, but they are baked and fried right behind the counter. So tasty. I have a weakness for plain cake, and cinnamon sugar is #2. OH man this was good. They open at 5 so usually we miss the raised glazed but my husband managed to get some a few days later at about 7:30. Couldn't even get a photo before it was almost gone!
We will miss you, Dale's Donut Factory. See you in my dreams.
See the awesome way the cake stuck to the pan? Lesson learned: butter AND flour your pan. The cake itself was sort of tough and spongy. Not very sweet. It tasted ok though. I'm going to chalk this one up to a lame recipe and not my questionable baking skills.
This one was my husband's idea. Honestly, I'm much better at executing the ideas of others. And also copying stuff. I mean, not copying, its an HOMAGE.
