Pumpkin Spice Cake
Recipe Gimme Some Oven
IT’S FALL Y’ALL!!
What better way to start fall than with something pumpkin spice? I LOVE FALL. I come alive for some reason. I’m so motivated to do everything! Maybe it’s because my birthday is in 20ish days?
Process-
I loved making this! It was so easy. Mix dry ingredients, then mix the wet ingredients. The recipe calls for softened butter and I sort of forgot, so as the oven was warming up I put the sticks of butter on top of the oven- we have an electric stove- and they warmed right up! MESSY HACK. Maybe that’s what I should be doing! Creating messy/lazy hacks? Wait are all hacks lazy? I’m thinking in circles…
This was my first cake from scratch! I’m really proud of myself. It’s so gratifying to make something with your hands and immediately see if you were successful.
Taste-
OMG. This this is delicious. It’s moist and pillowy. Not super sweet with a hint of fall spices. The cream cheese frosting is bomb.com too! I LOVE THIS CAKE. I think I could have added more spices to it for more of a punch though. I can’t wait to let some of my taste testers to taste this… WILL MAKE THIS CAKE AGAIN.
Random Thoughts-
Schitt’s Creek won all da emmy’s on Sunday. The show is incredibly funny. Personally- don’t kill me- but I like the first 4 season. The episodes had a bit more darker humor and not as fluffy?
Apple turnovers are happening this week. Yes. It’s happening and I can’t wait.
Our new house is coming along. We still have boxes everywhere which is extremely annoying. We still don’t know where everything is, which makes living and efficiency difficult. ALL ABOUT THE EFFICIENCY. I don’t like wasting time.
All the Halloween Baking shows are happening. I LOVE IT! One of the contestants on the Halloween Baking Championship is from Monterey, which is so cool!
I’m still in the process of buying Halloween Decorations and coming up with Halloween sweets for the Holiday Box I want to sell. Any ideas??
Here is the criteria:
Semi easy to make
Delicious
Stable enough to stay in a box overnight
Fall/Halloween themed
