Monique's Cassava Cake

 
SUBMITTED BY:
Monique L.

Monique has shared her grandmother's Cassava Cake recipe with us!

At Yum-o!, we believe in all things in moderation. Special treats like this Cassava Cake are to be eaten once in a while and only after you've been a good eater the rest of the time. That's why it's called a treat!

Note: Cassava (also called yuca) is a woody shrub native to South America and has an edible starchy root. The sweet cassavas can be eaten while the bitter kind must be cooked before eaten to remove toxins. Look for edible cassava where Latin American products are sold.
