This is the basic recipe from Aunt Annabelle Lincoln and I believe it is from her Mother or Grandma Tyler. (President Tyler’s family.) Although I guess Aunt Annabelle changed it by taking out ingredients that would make up a yellow cake and vanilla pudding and just used the packaged mixes. Obviously, they didn’t have cake mix or instant pudding back in her grandmother's time.
