A can of cream of mushroom soup can be a real dinner saver. It works great in casseroles and can turn into a sauce or gravy in a pinch.

I've added this to my pinterest page because the cake is delicious. We used a sugar free egg nog and cake mix and a reduced sugar Splenda blend for the syrup. I replaced the almonds with pecans (because we had more pecans than almonds) and it was amazing! Absolutely thrilled with this recipe.
