It is hard to believe that we have already done 30 of our 101 things. Today's thing is "every kids should help bake a cake from scratch and then lick the frosting bowl". This was one of my favorites because I like to bake and I love to eat. We decided to make better than sex cake, which is one of my favorite cakes. In keeping with the thing we had to make the cake mix from scratch, which I had never done before, but it was not too hard. Kelli also made the caramel that goes in the holes from scratch as well. As usual it was a lot of fun and our cake turned out pretty good, it was a little dry in certain places where the caramel did not soak in (which is why I would suggest using a cake box and making sure you have lots of holes). If you have some time you should definitely make this cake because it really is good.
Taking the egg cracking seriously.
Licking the beaters!
Our Finished Project
*Kel here butting in . . . Shan apparently forgot to mention that while making the cake we had a few adventures. . . like she burned up the beaters! haha! It would be somewhat funny and I would harass her more about it if they weren;t alread on the verge of going out, and if I hadn't messed up the caramel sauce. It called for brown sugar and I decided to use white. . . it still worked out though!
