don't knock it till you've tried it raisin cake
I love the Little Debbie Raisin Creme Pie Cookies but they stopped stocking them in our area. So I put together a raisin cake that my family had a fit over. And the icing just perfectly kicked the flavor up a notch. And just like the title says "Don't knock it till you've tried it."
