The Cake Mix Doctor

I haven't had the new book for very long, but I've already made this cake 3 times. It is one of those cakes that everyone who tries it loves it, and the ingredients are all things I always have on hand so I can whip it up at the last minute without having to run to the store. The only thing I would change is with the chocolate cream cheese frosting. The next time I make it I'm going to increase the recipe by half. The recipe made barely enough frosting to cover the cake, and I like having more frosting!

I've also made The Best Red Velvet Cake out of the new book, and it really is the best red velvet cake I've ever had. I made it with the chocolate cream cheese frosting, because I was doing a 2 tier cake with the choc. chip layer cake and I only wanted to make one frosting, and it was delicious!

Thanks for sharing, Jen. I recently received a request for Red Velvet cake, so I will try the recipe out of the new book.
