I use the recipes right on the back of the Hershey's cocoa powder can for both the Perfectly Chocolate Cake and their Perfectly Chocolate Frosting. If you don't have their brand of cocoa, I've given you a link below to their recipes.

    combine butter, cream cheese and sugar in bown...beat until fluffy. Refrigerate 1 hr before serving.
    Red Velvet Cake Recipe





    Vegetable oil for the pans


    2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour


    1 1/2 cups sugar


    1 teaspoon baking soda


    1 teaspoon fine salt


    1 teaspoon cocoa powder


    1 1/2 cups vegetable oil


    1 cup buttermilk, at room temperature


    2 large eggs, at room temperature


    2 tablespoons red food coloring (1 ounce)


    1 teaspoon white distilled vinegar


    1 teaspoon vanilla extract


    Cream Cheese Frosting, recipe follows


    Crushed pecans, for garnish





    Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly oil and flour 3 (9 by 1 1/2-inch round) cake pans.


    In a large bowl, sift together the flour, sugar, baking soda, salt, and cocoa powder. In another large bowl, whisk together the oil, buttermilk, eggs, food coloring, vinegar, and vanilla.





    Using a standing mixer, mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined and a smooth batter is formed.





    Divide the cake batter evenly among the prepared cake pans. Place the pans in the oven evenly spaced apart. Bake, rotating the pans halfway through the cooking, until the cake pulls away from the side of the pans, and a toothpick inserted in the center of the cakes comes out clean, about 30 minutes.





    Remove the cakes from the oven and run a knife around the edges to loosen them from the sides of the pans. One at a time, invert the cakes onto a plate and then re-invert them onto a cooling rack, rounded-sides up. Let cool completely.





    Frost the cake. Place 1 layer, rounded-side down, in the middle of a rotating cake stand. Using a palette knife or offset spatula spread some of the cream cheese frosting over the top of the cake. (Spread enough frosting to make a 1/4 to 1/2-inch layer.) Carefully set another layer on top, rounded-side down, and repeat. Top with the remaining layer and cover the entire cake with the remaining frosting. Sprinkle the top with the pecans.








    Cream Cheese Frosting:


    1 pound cream cheese, softened


    4 cups sifted confectioners' sugar


    2 sticks unsalted butter (1 cup), softened


    1 teaspoon vanilla extract





    In a standing mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, or with a hand-held electric mixer in a large bowl, mix the cream cheese, sugar, and butter on low speed until incorporated. Increase the speed to high, and mix until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes. (Occasionally turn the mixer off, and scrape the down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula.)


    Reduce the speed of the mixer to low. Add the vanilla, raise the speed to high and mix briefly until fluffy (scrape down the bowl occasionally). Store in the refrigerator until somewhat stiff, before using. May be stored in the refrigerator for 3 days.





    Yield: enough to frost a 3 layer (9-inch) cake.

    Chocolate-Red Velvet Layer Cake:





    Prep: 30 min., Bake: 20 min.





    We baked our cake layers in 6 (8-inch) disposable foil cake pans, so we could fill all the pans at once. This way, if you need to bake the cake layers in batches, the second batch will be ready to put in the oven as soon as the first one is done. To allow the heat to circulate for even baking, space pans at least 2 inches apart from one another and away from the inside walls of the oven. Although the pans are disposable, they can be washed and reused.

    1 1/2 recipes Cream Cheese Frosting

  • If you were baking a cake and the recipe called for 250 of sugar, how could you find this amount?

    250 what???? Depending on what that is, I might find it in my cupboard, at the store, or at the sugar refinery.If you were baking a cake and the recipe called for 250 of sugar, how could you find this amount?
    It is 1 and 1/4 cup of sugar. I bake by weight all the time and 200 grams equals 1 cup of sugar.





    Another trick to finding this is to look at the nutrition information on the side of the product. They often list a serving of dry ingredients in volume (cup, tablespoon, etc.) and weight (grams).If you were baking a cake and the recipe called for 250 of sugar, how could you find this amount?
    i think its


    1/2 sugar....


    it depends whether


    1/2 cup,


    grams.. etc.
    I see a couple of problems with your question, you don't say 250 of what, and you ask how I would do it. Supposing 250grams, which seems possible for one cake, I would just weigh it as I have a scale. If you don't have a scale, I have just weighed 250gm of sugar, and the volume is close to: 1:1/8 cups, 9oz, 18 tbsp, 260ml.





    One could also look in a large cookbook and see if there is conversion table, might not be, but could be worth a try

    CHOCOLATE GENOISE


    6 ounces flour


    6 tablespoons cocoa powder


    4 eggs


    3 ounces sugar


    2 ounces butter, melted








    Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Butter and flour an 8-inch cake pan, line with parchment or waxed paper. Butter and flour paper.


    Combine flour and cocoa and sift 3 times. In a mixing bowl set over a pan of hot water combine eggs and sugar. Whisk until mixture registers 110 degrees F on a candy thermometer. Remove from heat and continue to whip egg mixture until extremely fluffy. Using a large spatula gently fold in sifted flour by thirds and finish by folding in melted butter. Pour into prepared pan and bake until firm, 25 to 30 minutes. Cool cake in pan 5 minutes, turn out on a rack and cool completely.





    Note: measurements are given by weight for greater accuracy. Cup measures are as follows: scant 1/2 cup sugar; 6 tablespoons cocoa; 1 1/2 cups flour; 1/2 stick butter.








    CHOCOLATE BUTTERCREAM


    1 1/3 cups sugar


    8 egg yolks


    1 cup butter, cut in cubes


    8 ounces chocolate, melted and cooled








    In a saucepan fitted with a candy thermometer boil sugar with 3 cups water to 120 c. or 240 degrees F. Meanwhile, in bowl of an electric mixer beat yolks until pale. With motor running pour in syrup and beat until mixture forms a ribbon. While mixture is still warm add butter, a piece at a time, then add chocolate, scraping down sides several times. Continue whipping until mixture cools.


    Yield: Enough Buttercream to Frost an 8-inch cake








    CHOCOLATE DESIGNS AND CAKE ASSEMBLY


    1 cup simple syrup


    Kirsch


    1 pound chocolate, chopped


    Chocolate Genoise cake (previous recipe)


    Chocolate Buttercream frosting (previous recipe)








    Combine syrup and Kirsch, to taste, for moistening cake.


    In a bowl set over a saucepan of hot but not boiling water, melt chocolate, stirring frequently. Set aside to cool and thicken to a pourable consistency. Fill a pastry bag fitted with smallest tip with chocolate. Pipe out neat small designs onto waxed paper; let solidify at room temperature.





    To assemble cake: slice fully-cooled cake in half horizontally. Using a pastry brush generously brush both layers with flavored syrup. Place bottom layer on a cake stand and spread with a nice even layer of buttercream. Cover with top layer. Using a palette knife spread a nice, even layer of buttercream on top of cake and then ice sides; try to make as smooth a surface as you can. Decorate top with chocolate designs.

    It has recipes for quite a few tasty cakes that can be prepared easily from home ..
    I remember the best chocolate cake I had was the one my mom used to make and believe it or not she put helmans mayonnaise in it. made it so moist. Im sure if you go on the helmans site you will find it. I dont bake so if i had to I would use a box mix
    For me it's gotta be the classic chocolate Victoria sponge cake... with chocolate butter cream in the center ...





    My mother makes it with chocolate icing on the top when I get back to the UK for a visit....





    Make sure you use sponge flour or self-raising flour!
    The simplest ever.


    6oz marg.


    6oz caster sugar


    5oz self raising flour


    1oz cocoa powder


    1 teaspoon baking powder


    3 large fresh free-range eggs





    put all into a food processor or a bowl and mix until it becomes totally - together.





    Either turn out into 2 x 8'; greased and floured cake tins or 1 x large 8'; cake tin or 3 x 12 bun tins - whatever.





    Cook at 180deg c (fan) or 200deg c (n0n-fan) for about 25 mins until the mix has risen and feels firm.


    Turn out onto a cooling rack.





    TOP... Either with buttercream, choc, choc/orange or whatever after you have read this ...





    simple buttercream 1oz marg or butter + cocoa powder/lemon zest/orange zest/ neat rum or any other flavoursome alcohol/pureed fruit/pina colada - whatever you like - this is your cake, but a really good central filling is a mix of good quality chocolate orange, orange liqueur, a little good quality butter - microwaved until melting on the defrost setting and then whizzed up by hand with enough icing sugar to help it retain its shape as a filling. Top the cake with the same if you like and either create a pattern on it to decorate or roll it in vermiccelli, toasted almonds or finely grated orange peel previously soaked and marinated in a mix of a good irish whiskey and orange juice. Please don't kill yourself - i love food and i would really like to think that you will expand on a simple chocolate cake here to make something that you really, really, enjoy!

    I need a delicous vanilla cake recipe from scratch for my sisters b-day!!!!!?







    When a cake is this easy to make and so good, who needs a cake mix? This vanilla-scented cake is simply irresistible slathered with your favorite frosting or layered in whipped cream and strawberries.


    Ingredients





    * 2 cups (500 mL) sugar


    * 4 eggs


    * 2-1/2 cups (625 mL) all-purpose flour


    * 1 cup (250 mL) milk


    * 3/4 cup (175 mL) vegetable oil


    * 2-1/4 teaspoons (11 mL) baking powder


    * 1 teaspoon (5 mL) vanilla





    Cooking Instructions





    1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C). Line two 9-inch (23-cm) round cake pans or one 9x13-inch (23 x 33 cm) rectangular baking pan with parchment paper. Grease the paper and the sides of the pan well.


    2. In a large mixing bowl, with an electric mixer, beat sugar and eggs together until slightly thickened, about 1 minute. Add flour, milk, oil, baking powder, and vanilla and beat for another minute, just until the batter is smooth and creamy. Don't overbeat. Pour batter into the prepared baking pan(s).


    3. Bake in preheated oven for 30 to 40 minutes or until the tops are golden and a toothpick poked into the center of the layer comes out clean. (A single rectangular pan will take longer to bake than two round ones.) Loosen the sides of the cake from the pan with a thin knife, then turn out onto a rack and peel off the paper. Let cool completely before covering with frosting, if desired.





    Servings: Two 9-inch (23-cm) round layers, or one 9- x 13-inch (23 x 33 cm) rectangular cake.


    How kids can help





    Older children (10 and up) can use electric mixer, with adult supervision, to beat batter. Spoon batter into prepared pans.

    Double Vanilla Poundcake with Vanilla Glaze





    Poundcake is an “old faithful” in my repertoire. It keeps well, makes a lovely gift, can be dressed up or down, and if it grows stale, it’s perfect for Bread Pudding or Triffle. I’ve paired it here with Crème Anglaise. You can pour the custard over slices of cake for a triple vanilla wonder.





    Ingredients:





    1 large vanilla bean, split or cut into pieces


    1 cup milk, room temperature


    4 cups flour, sifted


    1 tablespoon baking powder


    1/2 teaspoon salt (if using salted butter, delete)


    2 cups unsalted butter, softened to room temperature


    2-1/2 cups vanilla sugar


    6 jumbo eggs, room temperature


    1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract





    Preparation:





    Preheat oven to 350 degrees.





    Pour milk into a saucepan, add the vanilla bean and scald the milk. Let mixture cool to room temperature. Remove vanilla bean, rinse it off, and set aside.





    Resift the flour with the baking powder and the salt onto a sheet of waxed paper; set aside.





    In a large bowl, cream the butter with an electric mixer on moderately high speed until light, about 3 minutes.





    Add the vanilla sugar in two portions, beating thoroughly after each portion is added. Beat in eggs, one at a time, periodically scraping down the sides of the bowl to ensure an even mixture. Blend in vanilla extract.





    On low speed, add the sifted dry ingredients alternately with the milk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients.





    Pour and scrape the batter into a lightly buttered, floured 10-inch tube pan, a large square baking pan or three loaf pans. Bake the cake on the lowest rack of the oven for about 1 hour, or until a toothpick inserted into the cake emerges clean and dry.





    Cool the cake in the pan on a rack for 10 minutes. Prick holes all over the top of the cake with a thin knife or toothpick and slowly spoon glaze over the cake, allowing the syrup to absorb into the cake.





    Vanilla Glaze





    Ingredients:





    1 cup sugar


    1 cup water


    1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract








    Preparation:





    Place sugar and water in a small saucepan, add in the reserved vanilla bean, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes, or until syrup begins to thicken.























    VANILLA CHIFFON CAKE





    1 c. sifted all-purpose flour


    1/2 c. sugar


    1 1/2 tsp. baking powder


    1/4 tsp. salt


    4 eggs, separated


    1/4 c. vegetable oil


    1/4 c. water


    1 tsp. vanilla extract


    1/2 tsp. cream of tartar


    1/2 c. sugar





    Combine flour, 1/2 cup sugar, baking powder and salt in small mixing bowl. Make a well in center; add egg yolks, oil and water and vanilla. Beat at high speed 5 minutes or until satin smooth.


    Combine egg whites (at room temperature) and cream of tartar in a large mixing bowl. Not made of plastic. Beat until soft peaks form. Add 1/2 cup sugar, 2 tablespoons at a time. Beat about 4 minutes at medium speed until stiff peaks form. Peaks should stand straight up when beaters are lifted.





    Pour egg yolk mixture in a thin stream over entire surface of egg whites, gently folding mixture, into whites. Pour batter into ungreased 10'; tube pan, spreading batter evenly with spatula.





    Bake at 325 degrees for 1 hour or until cake springs back when touched lightly. Remove from oven, invert cake in pan, and cool completely before removing from pan.

    Microwave method.


    Equal quantities of flour, butter and sugar in a mixer, add couple of eggs, some baking powder, pinch of salt and drinking chocolate powder.


    All well mixed together, put into bowl and microwave for several minutes, full strength, keeping your eye on it till it looks cooked through. (It will expand considerably during cooking, so make sure you use a big enough bowl.)


    Check it's cooked through by inserting a knife vertically at the centre. If the knife comes out clean, it's done.


    Turn out onto a plate.

    Hope this helps.
    Yes I do - a wonderful recipe, deep rich chocolate and a moist sponge and it is practically foolproof.
    Chocolate Sponge Cake:





    1/4 cup (50 grams) plus 2 tablespoons (28 grams) granulated white sugar





    6 large eggs, separated





    1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract





    4 ounces (112 grams) bittersweet or semisweet chocolate, chopped in small pieces





    3/4 teaspoon cream of tartar





    Dutch-processed cocoa powder or powdered sugar for dusting





    Chocolate Whipped Cream:





    1 cup (240 ml) heavy whipping cream





    1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract





    3 tablespoon (40 grams) granulated white sugar





    1 1/2 tablespoons cocoa powder (I use Dutch-processed)





    Chocolate Sponge Cake: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C) and place the oven rack in the center of the oven. Butter, or spray with Pam, a 17 inch (43 cm) by 12 inch (30 cm) jelly roll pan. Line the pan with parchment paper and then butter and flour the paper (or spray with Baker's Joy). Set aside.





    While the eggs are still cold, separate the eggs, placing the whites in one bowl and the yolks in another. Cover with plastic wrap and bring to room temperature before using (takes about 30 minutes).





    Meanwhile melt the chocolate in a stainless steel bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water. Set aside.





    In the bowl of your electric mixer (or with a hand mixer) place the egg yolks and 1/4 cup (50 grams) of sugar and beat until this mixture is light and fluffy (about five minutes). (When you slowly raise the beaters, the batter will fall back into the bowl in a slow ribbon.) Beat in the vanilla extract. Add the melted chocolate and beat only to combine. Set aside while you beat the egg whites.





    In a clean mixing bowl, with the whisk attachment, beat the egg whites until foamy. Add the cream of tartar and beat at medium-high speed until soft peaks form. Gradually beat in the remaining 2 tablespoons (28 grams) of sugar until stiff peaks form.





    Gently fold a small amount of the egg whites into the egg yolk mixture using a rubber spatula or whisk to lighten the batter. Fold in the remaining whites just until incorporated. Don't over mix or the batter will deflate. Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan with an offset spatula. Bake until the cake is puffed, has lost its shine, and springs back when gently pressed, about 15-17 minutes. Remove from oven and place on wire rack to cool. Cover the cake with a clean, slightly damp towel.





    Chocolate Whipped Cream: In a large mixing bowl place the whipping cream, vanilla extract, sugar, and cocoa powder and stir to combine. Cover and chill the bowl and beaters in the refrigerator for at least one hour so the cocoa powder has time to dissolve. Beat the mixture until stiff peaks form.





    Once the cake has cooled, spread with the chocolate whipped cream and gently roll the cake, peeling off the parchment paper as you roll.





    Can be stored in the refrigerator for up to five days.

    Does anyone have a recipe for the better than sex cake?

    1 (18.25 oz) package Devil's food cake mix


    1/2 (14 oz) can Sweetened condensed milk


    6 oz. Caramel ice cream topping


    3 (1.4 oz) chocolate covered toffee bars, chopped


    1 (8 oz) container frozen whipped topping, thawed.


    Preparation





    Bake cake according to directions for 9x13 inch pan. Cool on wire rack for 5 minutes. Make slits across the top of the cake, making sure not to go through to the bottom.





    In a sauce pan over low heat, combine sweetened condensed milk and caramel topping, stirring until smooth and blended. Slowly pour the warm topping mixture over the top of the warm cake, letting it sink into the slits; then sprinkle the crushed chocolate toffee bars liberally across the entire cake while still warm.





    Let cake cool completely, then top with whipped topping. Decorate top of cake with more toffee chunks and swirls of caramel topping. Refrigerate and serve right from the pan.Does anyone have a recipe for the better than sex cake?
    I use yellow cake mix (any kind). Bake as directed. Let it cool completely. Poke holes in the cake with a fork all over. In a separate bowl mix one can sweetened condensed milk and one jar Smuckers caramel ice cream topping. Pour this mixture over the cake. It might look like it will overflow, but it won't, the cake soaks it up. I refridgerate it like that overnight, but you don't have to. Just before serving top with cool whip and sprinkle with Heath bits or any other toffee bits. It is wonderful! Enjoy!Does anyone have a recipe for the better than sex cake?

    introduction


    WHITE CHOCOLATE TRUFFLE AND CHOCOLATE FUDGE LAYER CAKE





    A thick layer of pure white chocolate truffle separates the amaretto-brushed layers, and a bit more truffle filling is used to flavor the whipped cream icing.

    Makes 12 to 14 servings.


    subscribe to Bon App茅tit %26gt;


    ingredients


    Chocolate stars


    6 ounces bittersweet (not unsweetened) or semisweet chocolate, chopped


    1 tablespoon solid vegetable shortening


    Nonstick vegetable oil spray





    Cake


    4 ounces unsweetened chocolate, chopped


    1 3/4 cups all purpose flour


    1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder


    1 teaspoon baking powder


    3/4 teaspoon baking soda


    1/2 teaspoon salt


    2 cups sugar


    1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, room temperature


    2 teaspoons vanilla extract


    2 large eggs


    1 1/2 cups whole milk





    Filling and frosting


    3 cups chilled whipping cream


    1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, cut into pieces


    1 pound good-quality white chocolate (such as Lindt or Baker's), finely chopped


    2 teaspoons vanilla extract





    1/2 teaspoon almond extract





    4 tablespoons amaretto or other almond liqueur


    preparation


    For chocolate stars:


    Line baking sheet with foil. Stir chocolate and shortening in top of double boiler set over simmering water until melted and smooth. Pour onto prepared baking sheet, tilting pan to spread chocolate mixture to irregular 14x9-inch rectangle. Refrigerate until just firm, about 12 minutes. Spray assorted star-shaped cookie cutters with nonstick spray. Cut out stars. Refrigerate until firm, about 30 minutes. Using small offset spatula, carefully transfer stars 1 at a time to another foil-lined baking sheet. Refrigerate until ready to use. (Can be made 3 days ahead. Cover and keep refrigerated.)





    For cake:


    Preheat oven to 350掳F. Butter two 9-inch-diameter cake pans with 1 1/2-inch-high sides. Line bottoms with parchment paper; butter parchment. Stir unsweetened chocolate in heavy medium saucepan over low heat until melted and smooth. Cool slightly. Sift flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt into medium bowl. Using electric mixer, beat sugar and butter in large bowl until well blended. Beat in lukewarm melted unsweetened chocolate and vanilla. Beat in eggs, 1 at a time, blending well after each addition. Mix in cocoa powder mixture in 3 additions, alternating with milk in 2 additions.





    Divide batter between prepared pans. Bake cakes until tester inserted into center comes out clean, about 35 minutes. Cool cakes in pans on racks 10 minutes. Run knife around edge of each pan to loosen cakes. Turn cakes out onto racks and cool completely. Peel off parchment.





    For filling and frosting:


    Bring 1 cup cream and butter to simmer in heavy medium saucepan over medium heat, stirring until butter melts. Remove from heat. Add white chocolate and stir until smooth. Whisk in vanilla. Pour 1 1/2 cups white chocolate filling into small bowl; cover and freeze until cold, about 2 hours.





    Let remaining white chocolate mixture in saucepan stand at room temperature until lukewarm, about 20 minutes.





    Using electric mixer, beat remaining 2 cups cream and almond extract in large bowl until peaks form. Working in 3 batches, fold in lukewarm white chocolate mixture. Refrigerate whipped cream frosting just until medium peaks hold, folding occasionally, about 3 hours.





    Brush 2 tablespoons amaretto over top of each cake layer. Place 1 layer on platter. Spread chilled 1 1/2 cups white chocolate filling over. Top with second cake layer. Spread whipped cream frosting over top and sides of cake. Chill until cold and set, about 1 hour. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and keep refrigerated.)





    Arrange chocolate stars decoratively atop cake and serve.

    Anyone know a good bday cake recipe?

    It is my sons 2nd bday this month, and I really want to make his cake.A sponge with jam and buttercream icing would be ideal,but other ideas are very welcome too! Thanks in advance ppl! xAnyone know a good bday cake recipe?
    It's easy to make your own...just don't think it's overwhelming.





    Buy a cake mix off the shelf (yes, off the shelf and follow the directions).


    Use two round pans (buy them if you have to, I recommend 9'; or 8'; rounds)





    Buy you Son's fave Jam, maybe two small jars or one big one.





    Buy the premade frosting in a tub (at least two if not three)





    Bake the cakes, let them cool, put the first layer down on a plate or board, put the jam on the top, go to the very edge of the cake (make sure it's cooled). Slather the jam, the more the better!





    Put the next cake layer on top. So what if some comes out the side (remember your pb%26amp;j sandwiches years ago...they still tasted great)!





    Open the frosting and dump, yes, dump all of it on top. Use the second batch too, dump it on top as well. Then, take a knife, spoon or whatever you go and start smoothing the frosting all over the cake and down the sides, all the way to the plate or board.





    It doesn't matter if it looks pretty or has a few flaws...it's gonna taste great! Take photos because it's going to make your Son happy!





    In the years I've made cakes for people - Birthdays, Graduations, Wedding, Father's Day, Mother's Day, and I could go on and on...it truely means a lot to have a loved one make the special dessert.





    Throw yourself into it and you'll be glad you participated!





    Good Luck...Let us know how your Son's ';day'; turns out!Anyone know a good bday cake recipe?
    Chocolate cake:





    Dry Ingredients:


    6 oz plain flour


    3 heaped tablespoons cocoa ( you may have to sieve this by itself and then again with the flour.)


    One level teaspoon baking powder


    One level teaspoon bicarb


    5 oz castor sugar





    Wet ingredients


    One level tablesp. Black treacle


    2 eggs


    5 fluid oz milk


    5 fluid oz corn oil (or other veg. oil but NOT OLIVE)





    Prepare two tins, at least 8” diameter, or a ring cake tin.





    Mix all dry ingredients thoroughly. Mix all wet ingredients thoroughly.


    Mix wet into dry, and stir until mixed. This should be really quite sloppy. Pour into tin/s.


    Bake in ready-heated oven at mark 3, 325 degrees or 160 degrees.


    They will take exactly 45 minutes.


    Split and fill and/or ice if you like. (Wonderful if filled with stiffly-beaten cream and raspberries for sumptuous pud.)


    Note


    If you change the quantities or ingredients or temperatures or baking times the cake won’t work.





    Note 2. This cake is low in cholesterol, as it uses oil instead of hard fat.

    Marzipan for the toes, cheeks, ears, and could be the feet. You can cut the edges down on the bottom cake (it looks smaller then the top one) and use the left over half circles for the arms. You could also bake up some sugar cookies and shape them how you need. Twinkies also come to mind as an option or a banana covered in frosting. Have fun and be imaginative.
