Author's Notes: This recipe was printed about a year ago in the newsletter of the Ocean Beach (San Diego) People's Food Co-op.

I made it last week, and enjoyed it... since I don't eat dairy products, I frosted it with a mixture of tofu blended in a blender with margarine and maple syrup, vanilla and lemon juice to taste. By the way, I think it would be better with slightly fewer poppyse
