My friend shares this recipe that she found in her mother's recipe box a few months ago. Weber thinks it dates back to the 1930s. She made this unusual cake and says that it was quite good.

This cake is a culinary abomination. It should be banned from all kitchens.

This cake is a waste of time and ingredients. It's bland and flavorless.

I've tried this cake a few times and I've never been able to get it right. The cake always turns out too dry.

This cake is a little too sweet for my taste, but I think it would be perfect with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

I'm not a huge fan of saltine crackers, but I actually really enjoyed this cake. It's a great way to use up leftover crackers.
