Hershey's Chocolate Cake and other Mishaps

For some reason I can't seem to take pictures and cook! Doing too many tasks in the kitchen for me leads to mistakes.

I don't know if it was concentrating on taking pictures or if it was designing my business cards but as I was making the recipe for this scrumptious cake I realized something went wrong!

So if you come to my blog looking for the perfect everything...you will not find it here!

I do have to say that is still came out awesome! If you would like to try it here is the recipe.


Hershey's Chocolate Cake






1 cup sugar
1 cup flour
16 oz can Hershey Syrup
1 stick of butter
4 eggs

Topping
1 stick butter
1/3 cup evaporated milk
1 cup sugar

Mix all five of the cake ingredients together and pour in a 9x13 baking dish. Bake at 325* for 30 minutes.





On stovetop combine topping mixture and bring to a boil. After it boils turn to low for 2 minutes.




Remove and add 1/2 cup of chocolate chips






When cake is done pour mixture over top of cake.





Should be like a glaze. Cool and enjoy!

This is where the mishap occured. Too much evaporated milk! Yes my cake was floating!!!
After it soaked in some I drained it. I tasted it and YUMMY!!! It was still awesome! The topping should have been more of a glaze and it does sink in to the cake but shouldn't have been so much.

Note to self: Pay attention when cooking!!!

The other mishap.....

The other day I was cleaning and I stripped the dog bed to wash it. Puppy has a memory foam bed! He really loves it. I mean who wouldn't it is so soft and cuddly.

But Puppy being Puppy....he decided to get in on all the decorating around here.





OH DUDLEY!!!!
