Today is my daughter Katie's 17th Birthday!
"Happy Birthday Katie"
She requested Strawberry Poke the Hole Cake. I bought the ingredients to make it but my other daughter didn't know about the request and she made a chocolate cake. Not a huge loss but I didn't have frosting for a chocolate cake.
I improvised and it was really good.
1 container vanilla instant pudding (chocolate would be better but I didn't have any)
2 heaping TBS cooking chocolate powder.
1 cup whole organic milk
Beat together for 2 minutes.
Whip up whipping cream (use really cold beaters and bowl - I put them in the freezer for awhile.) oh, add a TBS of sugar or honey to sweeten.
Fold cream into pudding. Frost cake. It is yummy with shredded chocolate bits on top. (I used Halloween candy).
This Works for Me!
good one! And a creative use of Halloween candy to go the extra mile! That's terrific
ReplyDeleteOoooooooh, that frosting sounds super easy and super yummy!
ReplyDeleteAlso - I'm not sure if I ever popped over to thank you for your congrats on my "hey, y'all, I'm pregnant" post. So - thank you!
