Elephant Birthday Cake

This cute elephant birthday cake was sent to me by my cute friend Jimi. She made it for her son's birthday! I stinkin' love this cake! I never would have thought to make an elephant head. You are so creative, Jimi!!!

Oh The Yummiest Cake I've Ever Made

Let me start off by saying this. I <3 peanut butter and chocolate. It's not something that I can control. It's something that has plagued me since childhood. I can't really explain it, it just is. It makes me weak in the knees, it makes me cry a little bit and I have zero self control.

My sister found this cake over on Picky Palate. So, what else could I do? I HAD to try it. I mean, come on. I had to.

How delish does that look? Not only did it look good, it tasted even better. How often does that happen??? It was actually BETTER than I had hoped.

Cream cheese, chocolate cake, peanut butter and chocolate. Does it get any better?

I ate myself into a peanut butter and chocolate induced coma.

It was swell.

Happy Halloween

Don't look too close, because it isn't great!!! But, this is the only Halloween cake I've ever made!!!

I made it for a mother/daughter activity last year and they had a cake walk...


I just baked two bundt cakes (so you get the ridges on the sides) and turned one upside down and frosted. Used a cupcake turned upside down for the stem. I would definitely do some things different next time....but, hey!!!! It's the thought that counts, right??
