New Favorite

Ever since I became passionate about cooking, I have been a hard core homemade girl who likes to make all things from scratch.  I don't even like using boxed cake, because I have always felt that cake from scratch is better and really pretty easy to make.  With 3 kids under the age of 5, though, I have begun to take many shortcuts in the kitchen and don't cook as often as I like.  However, I have still always tried to make my cakes from scratch (with a few exceptions).  Today, though, I may be a new woman (or baker, as it were) because I have found a great cake recipe that may just be my new favorite!  And, scandal of all scandals . . . it starts with a boxed cake mix!???!!!!?  I am using and playing with the recipe for my daughters birthday cake and cupcakes.  I will have to post later if it's really the hit I think it will be.  So, stay tuned . . .
