The Sunday Night Cake is so named because the guys who opened the bakery called Baked (in Brooklyn) felt it was simple enough to make on a Sunday night. They are quite right.
It is excellent and very simple, which is nice when you have a sweet craving but you are really tired (from, say, working on your thesis!) The cake is dense but still fluffy. It's sweet and cinnamon-y and delicious. They suggest a pudding-like chocolate icing with it, which I did not make this time. I made it once before with the icing, which was amazing. I could have sworn I posted it but, I can't find it, so I have to assume I thought about posting it but didn't...oops! I will post it soon. I want to show it to you. It looked amazing!
By the way, the recipe calls for sour cream, which I didn't have in the house. So I substituted in fat-free Greek yogurt. It worked quite well. I think the cake was ever so slightly tougher than when I made it with sour cream. I didn't mind, though...it was still excellent!
P.S. This is from the second Baked cookbook, I think.
