(Cake Box Recipe) S’mores Bundt Cake

Your guests will seriously think you spent all day in the kitchen. And I…

Nana’s Chocolate Pound Cake

I only had the job for a few months. I started out as part time and somehow ended up assistant manager… whoa! Although I liked the job, it wasn’t where my heart was.

Chocolate Chocolate Chip Cake Box Cookies
Chocolate Chocolate Chip Cake Box Cookies Lately I have been working on re-photographing some of my recipes, like these Chocolate Chocolate Chip Cake Box Cookies. The photos are still not where I want them to be but they are 100 times better then some of the originals. I was blessed to have one of my best friends help me with this. She was my sous chef, dish washer, hand model, and comic relief. She even painted her nails for me! I’m working on making her a permanent helper, shhh 😉 . I’ve offered to pay her with the left over food =P I think she’s ok with that 😉 Cake…
