Riverside Len I have a recipe that comes from Just a pinch by Cassie called Lil' Chocolate Cake.I bake this when wanting a chocolate cake and it's the best I've ever made and so easy.It makes one 8 inch round or square pan and mine never domes up.Looks just flat as a bakery cake.When I want 2 layers I just double everything and it's fine.I sub a cup of black coffee for the cup of hot water.Here's the recipe:
Lil' Chocolate Cake
1-cup a.p. flour
1-cup sugar
1-cup hot water ( I use hot black coffee)
1/2-cup Hershey's baking Cocoa (I like special dark)
1-tsp.baking powder
1-tsp.baking soda
1-egg
1/4-cup melted butter
1.Preheat oven to 350* grease and flour 8" baking round or square pan.
2.In medium bowl combine 1st six ingredients
3.Add egg and butter and mix well.4.Pour in pan-Bake @350* for 30 -35 minutes or toothpick tests done.Cool .Can just dust with powder sugar but I frost mine with chocolate icing.You can double all ingredients and have a 2 layer cake or a 9x12 sheet cake pan.Trust me this is a good cake and you'll have everything on hand.Mix up all with spoon or I use a whisk,no mixer needed.
When I worked at the lunchroom every holiday that we had turkey we each had to debone 2 turkeys,that's a job but just takes practice.I don't spatchcock chicken at my home either.
Tonight we had leftovers- chicken and dressing,cranberry sauce,garden peas and scalloped potatoes.I still have enough dressing for the freezer to make 2 more meals.
