Make a copy of this dish.
For those who remember the legendary A&P (The Great Atlantic & Pacific Tea Company) grocery chain, the A&P CopyCat Spanish Bar Cake brings back fond memories. This famous bakery is the birthplace of the Spanish Bar Cake, a decadent cake flavored with spices, topped with a delicious cream cheese frosting, and occasionally studded with raisins. Despite what the name would imply, this cake is from the United States. In the middle of the twentieth century, it became more popular among American families thanks to its delicious flavor and low price.
Those who remember A&P CopyCat Spanish Bar Cake will have a wonderful time serving it, and those who don't will have a delicious new dessert to try. It is the ideal sweet to round off a heavy dinner because it is usually thick and juicy. It goes nicely with chilly milk or coffee. To round out the dessert, try serving it with some vanilla ice cream or whipped cream to counteract the spicy flavors. If you want to amp up the spicy taste profile for a party, try serving it with some candied pecans or warm apple compote.
