chocolate cake ...

We made chocolate cake to celebrate a good friend of mommys birthday! Mom took it to her friend and dropped it getting out of the car so unfortunately her friend got a smooshed cake. At least we had fun making it and Ms. Jodie said that it still tasted good even though it was smooshed :)




obviously i got to enjoy some yumminess too!




Here is the recipe in case you want to try ...

Chocolate Kahlua Cake
1 box devils food cake mix
1/2 cup sugar
3 eggs
1/3 cup butter
3/4 cup strong coffee
1/2 cup Kahlua
1/4 cup bourbon
3/4 cup water
2 rounded T cocoa

beat ing together for 4 minutes. pour into greased bunt pan and bake at 350 45-50 min.

let cool for a while then brush cake with kahlua (a lot if you want a strong flavor and a little if not) ... then our on icing. i also like to sprinkle top with powdered sugar if i have just cause it looks pretty :)
