A Monkey Cake

I’m home.

2

I’m happy.

2

I’m cooking something new every day.

2

This means more people are happy.

2

Spreading the joy with food 🙂

My baby cousin who is visiting, just had his 9th birthday.

2

I made him a cake.

2

When I showed him the cake and asked him what it was, he said, “It’s me!”.

2

This is what the cake looked like.

2

Obviously he thinks he is a monkey.

2

And he may be right.

2

I used my basic Fudgy Chocolate Cake recipe. (Just made a lot more icing!)

2

Then I cut off a bit from each side to make room for the ears.

2

2

The “ears” were Oreos covered in chocolate icing.

2

2

Actually the whole cake was covered in chocolate icing!

2

I gave the monkey a big yellow icing mouth, a scarily wide pink icing smile, raisin nostrils, and eyes made of holey chew sweets.

Cheers to family and food! They are the best things in life, won’t you say? 🙂
