While my eventual success at baking a loaf of bread has given me great pleasure i have now had my first EVER cake disaster!!!!
I had a feeling as i put it in the tin that it might be a little too much mixture for the tin but told myself i was being silly and the same recipe worked out just fine the other day......
Oh how wrong can you be!
My chocolate cake is now a molten lava type mush! I think i might cry...
It rose beautifully and i took it out of the oven quite confident in my prowess as an amateur baker. Left it for ten minutes before turning it out of the tin only to have it ooze piping hot cake mixture down my hand... mortification guaranteed.
I feel that in future i will be listening to that little voice in my head that whispers 'this is not going to work' in future, oh dear i feel very very silly.
maybe i can cover it with custard and call it something entirely different... the children will never know.
This is a mistake that will NOT be repeated!
