Yeah, it was pretty good!  Cream cheese frosting made it even better!  Cream cheese frosting:  8 oz pkg cream cheese, 1 stick butter, 2 teas vanilla, 4 cups powdered sugar.  Soften butter and cream cheese and cream together until smooth.  Add vanilla, then add powdered sugar one cup at a time.  That recipe was also from allrecipes.com
