This was an old gypsy campfire recipe from Anna's mother, who had 27 kids. Having little time to teach all of them to cook, she wrote down how to do so on all of her recipes. For example, this recipe calls for a very deep pan or maple syrup bucket with a tall glass upside down inside the bucket being greased well, and to test the doneness with a whittled down twig. A special note to put the rim of the glass on the bottom of the pan to prevent breaking the glass when you turn out the cake, for those new wives. Originally it was cooked over the campfires, so Anna had to adjust this to the oven.
