I love this cake. It starts with a cake mix so it’s quick to put together. It’s moist, tender and fabulously delish. It get’s it’s name from the retro cocktail the Harvey Wallbanger. The cocktail is made with a mix of vodka, orange juice and a liqueur called Galliano. The cake is topped with a light glaze that finishes it off perfectly!

Beautiful, Kathleen. This was my mom’s favorite cake that she took to every pot luck dinner at church. Everybody loved it and it was always one of the first desserts to disappear off the buffet.
