I think this is the orginal recipe. I only used one cup of brown sugar and I didn't use the frosting (typo in my previous posting). the frosting is a killer. The cake taste wonderful without the frosting...

Some oil is really good for you. I make all my own food so I am in control of everything. I use brown sugar instead of white, and cut down on the amount anyway, cook only with cold pressed, virgin olive oil and have peanut and canola oil for hubby's popcorn or a cake.
I used no other oils. I use real butter when I have to. I never use sugar or fat substitudes. Margarine is not good for anyone.

My husband and I do about 1600 to 2000 calories a day, and only about 25 to 28 % total fat content.
I cook with olive oil, but use it sparingly. We don't use canola oil because it interferes with his blood thinners. Butter is a treat for us usually. And cheese is a no no, we drink 1 % milk.
