This past weekend I decided it was time to roll up the sleeves and give it a whirl. I figured I would start with a classic recipe for cake, so I went with this Hershey's recipe at this link. The only substitution I made was using Ghirardelli cocoa powder instead of Hershey's.
Directions were easy and the batter came together just fine.The two-tier aspect of it was a little stressful, as there was some sticking to the pans when the cakes came out of the oven. Fortunately, it was not anything that the frosting could not cover up. Yes, frosting covers a multitude of sins. The finished product was a little "rustic" in appearance, but tasted great.
With that, I am checking this off the list!

Wow, that looks yummy. Cooking from scratch seems to be a lost art these days, it's fun to see you try to bring a little piece of it back.
