agt_spooky: (Baking with Barb)

I've intrigued several of you with my mentions of Milky Way cake that I make for my birthday this time every year, so I though I'd share the recipe with you!


Ingredients:

6 Milky Way bars
1 cup butter
2 cups sugar
4 eggs
2 1/2 cups flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 1/4 cups buttermilk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
chocolate frosting

Melt candy bars and 1/2 cup butter in sauce pan over low heat, stirring frequently.

Cream remaining butter and sugar in mixing bowl until fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well. Combine flour and baking soda in bowl, adding that mixture alternately with the buttermilk into the batter. Mix until smooth. Add melted candy, mix well. Stir in vanilla.

Bake in greased AND floured bundt pan.

350 degrees for 1 hour

After cake has been removed from pan and cooled, top with chocolate frosting.

Enjoy!

More exciting news on the baking front!

The company I work for is in a four-story building. We own the whole building but we lease out the second floor to a different company. Our receptionist is friends with the second floor receptionist. Yesterday Sue asked me when my next bake sale was going to be. I told her on the 24th. She wants me to send her a pdf of my flyer because the other receptionist saw the mini cakes on Sue's desk last week and that gal wants to distribute the flyer to all of those employees!

I think I'm gonna need a bigger oven. ;-)

So [livejournal.com profile] faninohio asked if I'd post some pics of my mini bundt cakes. I completely forgot to do it until about an hour ago and the extra lemon ones I brought to the office this morning were already sold out! In fact, I brought 20 extras in total of the 4 flavors and have already sold 13 of them. Making my sold total 61! Woot!

Here are pics of the other three:

Chocolate peanut butter…


Cinnamon swirl…


And Milky Way candy bar….


Now I'm hungry….

Quick update on "Barb's Baby Bundts" - I ended up selling a whopping 52 cakes as of orders closing this morning. Yowzers! LOL!

Made two of the four flavors last night. Will make the other two tonight and glaze/frost them all for delivery to everyone at work tomorrow.

Here's hoping for satisfied customers and repeat business! Thanksgiving and Christmas parties, perhaps? :-)

My little bakery business is off to a great start! Have sold 40 cakes in two days at work! I'm going to be very busy in the kitchen. :-)
