Serves/Makes: 16
Ready in: > 5 hrs

  • 1 pound pecans or walnuts, chopped
  • 1 pound shredded moist coconut
  • 1 pound raisins
  • 1 pound vanilla wafers
  • 1 regular can sweetened condensed milk

Combine dry ingredients well. Pour in sweetened condensed milk and work through with hands so that dry ingredients are thoroughly saturated. Press into spring form pan. Refrigerate for 2 days.

Cook's Notes: My Cherokee ancestors used hazelnuts, dates and thick goats milk, then wrapped the cake in watertight leaves bound with vine and placed in cold running stream for several days. This is delicious and easy.
