I’m Done with Cake…
January 18, 2011
no really, my history here is not good. Let’s take a trip back in time to 2008…
Remember that Dangerous Cake recipe?
Or how about the time I cheated?
Prepare yourself for my latest kitchen disaster…The World’s Ugliest Cake…
“Thanks for the cake, but did you drop it on the floor?” — text message from my husband
“It looks like a dalmatian!” — side note from my bestie
Personally, I think it looks like a squirrel danced all over it, but no matter how good it tasted, I’m leaving the baking to the bakers from now on.
On a bright note, I did succeed at making my first (and last) diaper cake for a baby shower last week.
Ingredients: 50 newborn diapers, 5 wash cloths, 2 pairs of socks, and 3 rubber frogs
the most dangerous cake recipe…
December 6, 2008
So I received a forwarded email (thanks val) with this included…”The Most Dangerous Cake Recipe.”
Take a coffee cup and add:
- 4 tablespoons flour
- 4 tablespoons sugar
- 2 tablespoons cocoa
- 1 egg
- 3 tablespoons milk
- 3 tablespoons oil
- 3 tablespoons chocolate chips (optional
- splash of vanilla extract
- large coffee mug
Mix all the dry ingredients well. Then add the egg…mix…then the rest of ingridents…mix. Then put that bad boy in the microwave for 3 minutes.
Where’s the danger? You are only 5 minutes away from chocolate cake. Dangerous indeed.
We all know I’m not much of a cook…but this just sounded sooooo easy. So I gathered up all the ingredients and gave it a whirl.
Yes, that is a mickey hand measuring spoon.
ooooo cake!
ugh! icky-icky poo! Dangerous cake, not so dangerous after all. Maybe it was the vanilla extract that expired in 2004 (it was only a splash?) or maybe it was the cocoa blend…but the most logical answer (considering my history), would be that it’s all the cook’s fault. I get it…I should stick to painting food, but should any of you folks out there with five free minutes to kill decide to give it a try, do let me know if it’s just me…or the stupid recipe.
