There is nothing like a moist, delicious double-layer cake slathered in buttercream frosting. But, if you're anything like me, you don't have time to make anything like that on an everyday basis. I work. I go to college. I have familial obligations. I need to cook. I need to clean. I'm lucky to have friends as busy as I am or I doubt anyone would put up with my schedule.
That being said, I think it's very important to have something special in the house to come home to as often as possible. I'm not sure why.. I guess it makes a chaotic home feel more at peace to me. So that's why, now-a-days, I really like "quick" cakes and cookies. Don't get me wrong. I will always prefer an "all-day" cake or meal, but sometimes those "busy day" cakes (as my mother calls them) can be just as awesome after a full week of work.
Stumble Upon has become one of my greatest friends during late-night downtime. You can find the most amazing food blogs and sites. And that's exactly how I found this gem. And I do mean gem.
This is absolutely the quickest cake you could possibly make. All together, I spent, maybe, about 10 minutes in the kitchen. And it's a really good cake. It's true that it's semi-homemade (I used "Moist Supreme" mix from Pillsbury, for those who are wondering), which I'm not usually a huge fan of, but it doesn't taste like it. And it's only two ingredients! How can you pass that up?
It's a fantastic, fast cake for Fall. And you might as well try it! More than likely, you already have everything you need in the pantry.
Recipe Ahead!
