I was hoping to create a cake with only the ingredients readily available in my pantry/icebox. Since it was so flippin’ hot here last night, I was sitting around in not-so-presentable attire and didn’t feel like going to the market. Unfortunately that didn’t work out so well. I couldn’t find a recipe that didn’t have at least SOMETHING I didn’t have already. I was missing either lemon zest, milk (turns out, I only had a wee bit of skim milk after all), veg oil, etc.
I threw on some clothes and headed for the market. I picked up a lemon cake mix, some choco frosting, fresh organic berries, all fruit strawberry preserves, and some lemons. Normally, I would make the cake bit on my own, from scratch, not from box, but by the time I returned home with the goods, it was late and the boyfriend would arrive shortly. So shortcuts I took.
Someone requested pictures, so here they are, behind the cut:
