i heart baking!

yesterday i came across a cake recipe on {the doe or the deer} that i just had to attempt!  cake mix + one can of soda.  i couldn't believe it, and now maybe you dont' either, but i am here to tell you that it works and i am never looking back.

{step one} gather your ingredients.  you're supposed to used diet cola.  i only had root beer.  so sue me.

{step two} pour entire can into dry mixture.  do not be alarmed when foam and bubbles appear.  especially do not yell out in surprise causing others in the house to think something is wrong and make them leave their televised sporting event.  we wouldn't want *that* to happen.

{step three}  enjoy a different can of beverage during baking process.  refreshing!

{step four}  after following oven directions on the box of mix, marvel at the wonderment that is your baked goodness.  ignore the fact that you got distracted watching old 'snl' clips on youtube and left it in the oven too long.

{step five}  cool.  frost.  pour cold glass of milk (or milk substitute if preferred) and enjoy.

my thanks to {jl youngsma} for sharing this little gem.
