Instructions:
- Preheat the oven to 350 F.
- Grease and flour a 13-by-9-by-2-inch baking pan. Spray with baking spray or grease and flour.

- Spread in the prepared baking pan and bake for 25 minutes, or until the cake springs back when gently pressed with a finger.
- Meanwhile, combine the topping ingredients in a saucepan and bring to a low boil. Cook, stirring frequently, for about 7 to 10 minutes, until thickened. Spread over the top of the hot cake and broil about 4 inches from the heat source for about 2 minutes, until bubbly and golden brown.
