As my Blog celebrates its 4th Blogiversary I am too happy and excited to stop myself from cooking something special! Obviously it had to be something baked and I decided on a delicious cake as part of the celebrations.
Elvis Presley was a great singer and artiste in the USA in the starting of the 1950’s till the 1970’s,in fact precisely till his death in 1977.I was born a few years after his death but loved his music as his records were played at home.It took me a good 12 years to know that the legend was no more and had become a permanent star even before I opened my eyes to the world and that gave me a kind of secret sorrow – which oscillated between my thinking he was alive to the factual reality of his painful death.
Later I came to know that during the 1970’s he had made his favourite snacks and meals public to his fans,this cake being one of them.Nigella Lawson has penned down the recipe for his Peanut Butter and Banana Sandwich in one of her cookbooks and that is also one delicious creation.Evidently the King (as he was fondly called) loved food and revelled in certain recipes which made him temporarily happy from the life of misery and depression which he was living at the time of his passing.
