Elvis Presley Cake (Jailhouse Rock Cake!!) – A family favorite. So simple and easy to make.

 Elvis  Presley Cake (Jailhouse Rock Cake)   is SO easy to make. It is a go to for  me when we have a family get together or a pot luck.

It is so delicious and always a huge hit. 

I have even made this into cupcakes for pot lucks so everyone can have their own individual “cake” and those were a big hit too!! 

I don’t know where this cake got it’s name but I can understand why it’s called “Jailhouse Rock Cake” Because it really does rock!  The flavors are so spot on.

  As I said making these into cupcakes was a great idea for the pot luck. Just a little more work for me.but this way everyone had their own cupcake or two. As I could see some people grabbing two lol. Who could blame them? Not me.   Either way I know you will love it.

Yummy! Make this simple and delicious cake today.
