when the cake is done pour this mixture immediately over the hot cake and put cake under the broiler, broil the top of cake for about 5-10 minutes watching closely so it doesnt burn.


VERY SCRUMPTIOUS!!!!!!! '

another thing is if you are making oatmeal for breakfast you can just make extra and make the cake with that instead of making the above amount of oatmeal.......
My grandma always was making this cake when she would have leftover oatmeal in the mornings!!!!!
ITS REALLY REALLY GOOD!!!
Tastes great even without the icing!
