EASIEST CAKE EVER!
I thought I would try this 2-ingredient cake that is making the rounds on Facebook. It takes only an Angel Food Cake Mix, and a can of fruit pie filling.

Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 350°. Grease and flour a 9 x 13" cake pan. The cake mix should be the type that you just add water to - but don't add the water. The fruit pie filling can be any flavor you like.
- 2. Stir together the cake mix and pie filling until all is totally combined. It will look really dry at first, but gets moister the more you stir. Do not add any water or liquid. Scrape the bottom and sides of bowl often to be sure you mix everything. I mixed mine by hand. If you use an electric mixer, it will cut up the fruit some, but that won't matter.
- 3. Pour and spread in prepared pan. Bake 22-27 minutes, until top springs back when lightly touched. Mine took 25 minutes.
- 4. Cool in pan 20 minutes before cutting. Serve with topping of your choice, such as ice cream, whipped cream, or more fruit topping. Or serve plain for a great coffee cake. It may also be served warm right from the oven, but will not cut into neat squares if so. But who cares, the flavor is awesome!
- 5. NUTRITION INFORMATION This cake is high in carbohydrate and sugars, so it is not really "diet" friendly; however, it is fat free. Divided into 12 servings, each serving has 200 calories, no fat or cholesterol, 360 mg sodium, 60 mg potassium, 58 g carbohydrates (including 38 g sugars), and 3 g protein.
EASIEST EVER CHOCOLATE BANANA CAKE
Do you have some bananas that need to be used up? This is a great recipe from Chatelaine Food Express Quickies which uses chocolate cake mix. You can have a lovely cake ready in under 45 minutes. When I made this I used Dr.Oetker Added Touch Devil's Food Cake Mix. The cake mix package size was 520 g and I baked it in a bundt pan for 45 min.

Steps:
- 1. Mix everything except milk and marshmallows. Set aside. Heat milk and marshmallows until melted. Pour over the first mixture and mix well. With buttered hands press mixture into a 13 X 9 pan lined with wax paper. Refrigerate. Turn out on clean cutting board and pull wax paper off. Cut into bars when ready to serve. Top with (optional) spoon of whipped cream or sour cream. Good either way.
Tips:
- Use the right ingredients: Make sure you have all the ingredients you need before you start baking. This will help you avoid any surprises or delays.
- Follow the recipe carefully: Don't skip any steps or ingredients. The recipe is designed to work in a specific way, and if you change something, it may not turn out right.
- Use the right tools: Having the right tools will make baking much easier. A good set of measuring cups and spoons, a mixing bowl, a whisk, and a spatula are all essential.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter can make the cake tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the cake at the right temperature: The temperature of the oven is important for baking a cake. Make sure to preheat the oven to the correct temperature before you put the cake in.
- Don't open the oven door too often: Opening the oven door too often can cause the cake to fall. Only open the door to check on the cake towards the end of the baking time.
- Let the cake cool completely before frosting it: This will help the frosting to set properly.

Baking a cake doesn't have to be difficult. With a little planning and preparation, you can easily make a delicious cake that everyone will enjoy. So next time you're looking for a sweet treat, give one of these recipes a try. You won't be disappointed!
