Three Snacking Cakes to Change Your Afternoons

'Satisfying and comforting, a slice of cake — whether chocolate, banana or lemon — is snack time as you know in your heart it should be.

Any kind of cake can be a snack, but not every cake is a snacking cake.

Cupcakes, leftover birthday cake, even ice cream cake eaten straight from the freezer are all delightful at 3 p.m.

But they do not qualify. Instead, picture a thick square of tender cake that you can eat with your hands. It’s crumbly, but still rich and moist. There’s icing, but not too much. And while there may not be a tall glass of milk on the table, it’s there in your memory — or at least in your imagination.

This is snacking cake, the perfect confection to turn vicious midafternoon stomach growls into contented purrs.'
