My coworkers birthdays are this week. I decided they both need cakes.
I made one traditional, yellow with chocolate frosting cake. 9x11, nothing fancy.
Then I made a lemon cake. I made both from mix (I should have used my cake recipe, which will share soon, as it is perfect), and intended the lemon cake to have a lemony confectioner's sugar frosting. I decided this would look best in bunt form.
I don't know why I keep trying to bake things in bunt pans. They don't like me. I don't like them. I have yet to make a successful bunt. I'm not sure it is really an ambition of mine anymore.
As I scraped bits out of the bunt and repaired what I could of the cake, Dan started eating scraps.
I decided that, for dessert, we would have trifle.
You will need:
cake bits
lemonade
sweetened condensed milk
whipping cream
vanilla
Something to layer it all in.
shaved chocolate and raspberries - optional
Mix the lemonade and sweetened condensed milk to taste.
Whip the cream. Add in a little vanilla. You may add in a little sugar, but with the milk, it really isn't necessary.
Layer cake, lemonade, whipped cream. Repeat until you run out.
Top with whip cream, shaved dark chocolate, and raspberries.
