Elvis Presley Cake

 More than anything else, I want the folks back at home to think right of me. I never expected to be anybody important. Until we meet again, may God bless you as he has blessed me. ~Elvis Presley quotes We're from "Elvis Country", living 15 minutes from his birthplace, and about 90 minutes from Memphis. Both of my parents, like most people of that generation who grew up in this area, saw Elvis perform live at the county fair. I love to hear people around here tell about when and where they first saw "The King" sing!  In honor of what would be Elvis's 75th birthday, there are lots of festivities going on in our little neck of the woods this weekend! My tribute will be to share this recipe with you guys! I honestly have no idea why it is called Elvis Presley Cake. I just know that it's delicious! My friend, Judy, shared the recipe with me about 20 years ago!  It's one of Larry's favorites. The original recipe is for a 9x13 sheet cake
